What goes well with mushrooms?
Mushrooms have a rich, earthy flavour and a meaty texture, so they pair well with a wide variety of ingredients. Here are a few ingredients that go well with mushrooms:
-
Garlic: adds a nice pungent flavour to mushrooms and a great combination.
-
Herbs: such as thyme, rosemary, and parsley, add a nice freshness and earthy flavour.
-
Onions: add a sweet and savoury flavour and can be caramelised for a deeper flavour.
-
Wine: such as red or white wine, adds a nice acidity and depth of flavour.
-
Cream: adds a nice richness and creaminess to mushroom dishes.
-
Cheese: such as parmesan, gruyere, or gouda adds a nice nuttiness and creaminess.
-
Meat: such as bacon, sausage, or steak adds a nice umami flavour and a nice contrast to the texture.
-
Nuts: such as almonds, hazelnuts, or walnuts add a nice crunch and a nutty flavour.
-
Starches: such as pasta, rice, or potatoes add a nice contrast to the texture and a great way to stretch the mushrooms.
