PORTOBELLO RECIPE - ROASTED MUSHROOMS WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 F. Clean the mushrooms. I like to rinse them with the gill side down, with a gentle water sprinkle on the top. Dry immediately with a paper towel. Many people worry that rinsing the mushrooms will water-log them. But for me, the fact that they grow on poo makes me want to give them a quick rinse. Or if you are cooler than me, just give them a wipe down with a dry paper towel.
• Pop off the stems and scrape the gills off the bottom the caps with a spoon.
• Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides.
• Cover a baking sheet with foil and arrange mushrooms in a single layer. Cook for 10 minutes.
• Flip mushrooms and cook for an additional 10 minutes. Allow to cool for a few minutes.
• Slice mushrooms and drizzle just a bit of balsamic vinegar on top. If you are feeling wild, pour a small dish with additional vinegar for dipping.
• Enjoy!

FRIED PORTOBELLO PO'BOYS

Steps:

• Marinate the mushrooms: Whisk the buttermilk and 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning in a large bowl, then add the portobellos and toss to coat. Refrigerate for 4 hours.
• About 30 minutes before frying, make the slaw: Whisk the olive oil, vinegar, mustard, sugar, mustard seeds, garlic, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a bowl. Add the coleslaw mix, red cabbage and scallions; toss lightly. Season with salt and pepper to your liking. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Bread the mushrooms: Combine the flour, remaining 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning, the baking powder and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a large shallow dish. Remove the mushrooms from the buttermilk marinade and coat in the seasoned flour (you can also shake the mushrooms with the seasoned flour in a paper bag). Shake off any excess flour and transfer the breaded mushrooms to a large plate.
• Fill a large cast-iron skillet halfway with vegetable oil and fit the skillet with a deep-fry thermometer; heat the oil to 350˚ F. Line a baking sheet with paper towels and set a rack on top.
• Add 6 to 8 mushroom slices to the hot oil and cook 3 to 4 minutes, then flip and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 more minutes. Remove to the rack. Repeat with the remaining mushrooms.
