A mushroom is the conspicuous umbrella-shaped fruiting body (sporophore) of certain fungi
A mushroom is the conspicuous umbrella-shaped fruiting body (sporophore) of certain fungi, typically of the order Agaricales in the phylum Basidiomycota but also of some other groups.
Popularly, the term mushroom is used to identify the edible sporophores; the term toadstool is often reserved for inedible or poisonous sporophores. There is, however, no scientific distinction between the two names.
In a very restricted sense, mushroom indicates the common edible fungus of fields and meadows (Agaricus campestris). A very closely related species, A. bisporus, is the mushroom grown commercially and seen in markets

    Growing your own mushrooms

    Australia doesn't have a good selection of mushrooms that I'm used to from the UK (south of England in particular) and France, so I have to grow my own when it's warm enough. Typically the choice in the supermarket is brown/white, flat/button and that's it. Head into the Asian areas and you'll...

    Recipe Scrambled Tofu with Mushrooms & Onions

    The paprika is optional. It does change the colour of the scramble, so bare that in mind when using it. My picture shows spring onions in with the scramble. They're not part of the original recipe. I had just added them because they needed using. Serves 2 as a main meal, 4 as a side with...

    Not sure where to post, but the spring roll casing is sort of a wrap, I think :scratchhead: As usual, my recipe has no fixed amounts. Its more the proportions that matter. For the dough, I roughly followed the method as described here Wonton, Siu Mai, and Cantonese Spring Roll Skins, except I...

    Recipe Roasted garlic flan with mushroom sauce

    I saw this made on a "cheffy" TV show as an appetizer, but it could easily be a light meal with the addition of a salad. The pasta in the dish is there as a slight thickening agent, i.e. the starch released from the pasta as it cooks. I already had a recipe for a Leek flan, so I reworked it...

    Recipe Scarborough Fair Raviolo al Uovo

    Strangely enough, the words in parentheses are NOT part of the official lyrics to Simon and Garfunkle's song, but I think they're implied: “Are you going to Scarborough Fair? / “Parsley (in the pasta dough), sage (in the butter), rosemary and thyme (in the mushroom sauce).” Because this recipe...

    Recipe Lentil and Mushroom Dressing

    LENTIL AND MUSHROOM DRESSING I found a recipe called Lentil and Mushroom Stuffing. In my region we call it dressing if it is not in the bird. I took several liberties with the recipe using what I had on hand. The Late Night Gourmet would call it improvisations. It worked. George liked it...

    Recipe Wild Mushroom, Barley & Celeriac Soup

    This is a soup that surprised us both with how much the flavour matured overnight and improved in depth. It is also one of those soups that looks brown, in a brown broth with brown mushrooms and brown barley... aka comfort food, not photogenic food. Servings: 6 Ingredients 30g dried wood...

    Recipe Brown sugar roasted chicken thighs with mushrooms & shallots

    This dish is easy to assemble and cooks in 35 minutes. For me, the use of dry sherry is essential here - it adds a subtle ‘nutty’ dimension and depth of flavour. The result is deliciously sweet, savoury and addictive. You need to serve this with potatoes to soak up the the ‘gravy’. The...
