That sounds GOOD although I hope you cooked the kidney beans previously to avoid the toxins! Also I don't like mushrooms at all, wish I did, they'd go in everything.
OK, so I said I wasn't replying to anything on this thread, but I can't stand it anymore. You don't like mushrooms? They're a whole kingdom of foods. That's like saying, "I don't like plants." I'm not normally one to dismiss any one else's taste, but I think you have to branch out a bit. There are so many varied and unique mushrooms out there. A shitake tastes nothing like a potobello tastes nothing like a elephant ear tastes nothing like button tastes nothing like a 'shroom that gets you high. It a beautiful class of edibles, and I hope you consider one day giving it another shot.
Well, I'm not the biggest fan of the texture, which I would hazard a guess is pretty standard. Although the taste isn't my favorite either. Honestly I don't know a damn thing about mushrooms, but I've never met one I liked. Well, except - well. But you're right that I'll have to branch out. Putting them in a stir fry is probably a good start.
I have made this recipe a dozen times. Find a party. Make these. If you don't like them, everyone else will eat them with wanton abandon.
Start here. I promise that you'll not be disappointed.
Ha. That is classic cliffelam humor right there.
I think it's hilarious that this is what drew you out of your self-imposed post exile. That said, I fully agree; mushrooms are such a wonderful food and are full of variety. We found almost a pound of morels in our backyard this spring and the feast it provided us was amazing. I don't like white onions, but I'll cook with shallots all day long. -Same basic family, two different flavors. Flag -good luck overcoming this handicap.
Yeah, like chicken-of-the-woods. I'm gonna get some of these sometime, I'm resolute in that. Edit: Wrong mushroom!
