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

    Recipe Mushroom and Walnut Samosas

    This recipe will work well as a filling for veggie rolls or pastries, as well as the suggested samosas.

    Recipe Fennel, mushroom & butter beans with Ouzo

    Aniseed is the perfect foil for earthy mushrooms and beans. Pernod could be substituted here, but Ouzo has a slightly more complex, spicy flavour. The curry leaf plays on that spicy dimension. If you can’t obtain curry leaves, substitute tarragon and add a little sprinkle of ground fenugreek...

    Recipe Tofu and Mushroom Burgers

    This is a recipe that I am still working on. It has great potential; it is just that the firm tofu I used (extra firm, very high in protein) was too firm to work as I had imagined. I can also see no reason why 1 large flat, field mushroom could not be used. Grating the veg rather than dicing...
