Where Do I Go With This?

So. I had 1/3 lb. of mushrooms that I had intended to stuff or cook with something that were starting to look ripe. (Bought them exactly a week ago.) I had another 6 well soaked dry shtitake mushrooms. I roughly chopped all of the mushrooms except three nice looking ones that could be stuffed, minced about 2 T. of white onion and 1 T. of garlic, then drizzled olive oil over it all and stuck it in the refrigerator.

What should I make with this majic mushroom base? Inquiring minds are wondering what we'lll come up with...

My first thoughts were mushroom omelettes or crepes made with rice flour and a sauteed mushroom filling with chopped, pan seared flounder and wilted spinach or cabbage.

What do you think? Where should I go from here? Hope we have fun with this...

Mushroom risotto with a sauteed chicken breast and some sort of wilted greens is what I would do with it. :D

When I buy mushrooms I immediately put them in a paper bag (like a sack lunch paper bag) and then chunk them in the fridge. The paper lets the mushrooms breathe enough so that they don't get slimy. If you completely forget about them (not that I have ever done that :lol: ) they just become dehydrated but are still usable in soups and stuff.

I would like to know what you are planning on doing though!

I must be in a paper bag as I am starting to dry out :unsure: Please don't chuck me in a soup, yet :lol:

DH last night made a version of coq au vin a la Julia Child, except he had to use chicken thighs because I had already roasted the coq, and with the bacon and the quartered mushrooms (not to mention the half bottle of good french wine that had been sitting in the cellar for five years) it was pretty fab (drool face) :)

LOL... love your responses!

And photo!

I'll definitely start stashing 'shrooms in a paper bag! And I think I have enough of my potent mixture to try all your suggestions.

One little tip, based on my mushroom omelete this morning, is not to mix raw minced garlic and onion and chopped 'shrooms with olive oil and refrigerate overnight. The mushrooms intensely soaked up the onion/garlic flavor. Which could make them perfect for stuffed chops or coq au vin (with some Trader Joe's White Wine).

Can you make risotto without parmesan cheese? Egads, I can do coconut milk, I'm sure it'll be delicious.

Sometimes I grate a little carrot on things that I used to serve with cheese, and wonder if Cindarella did stuff like that! (Still looking for my lost glass slipper...thanks for the wonderful suggestions.)

I used a mushroom mix with spinach (and garlic of course) to stuff a beef roast. I have used it to stuff chicken breasts, too. Yummy!!!

I'm not a big fan of mushrooms except Shroomie but this is pretty funny! I'm trying not to laugh out loud as everyone else went to bed! I've been sleeping in a paper bag because I thought it made you soft and fresh like a peach! :P

Trout with mushroom & wild rice stuffing? Side of turnip fries?

Marilyn R Community Regular

Turnip fries? Inquirying minds want to know! Oh man I love trout, but live in the SE, have some frozen flounder filets...

Last night I ignored them .. was all shroomed out from breakfast.

I just peeked at them a few minutes ago and considered adding a bit to the steak marinade I made (which I found onlne and may be delicious or not). (Tahini, chopped sugared ginger, minced garlic, cannola oil...cuz I couldn't find my sesame oil.. lime juice and dried red pepper.)

My resident dear BF and grillmeister just announced that he didn't know what I did with that steak, but it smells better than anything he's ever grilled! That was in response to my question about whether or not I should add shrooms to the marinade. Tonight they're pared with sauteed zucchini and fresh spinach in olive oil (and garlic). (My 4 minute contribution to dinner, other than making the marinade.)

So...tomorrow will be fish and dealing with the left over shrooms with stuffed flounder and still wondering about turnip fries...or if risotto will be pallatable with coconut milk and no cheese.

I never used to be food focused!

I've been obsessed with root vegetables lately; therefore the turnip fries. Very easy-peel them, cut them into matchsticks, toss them with oil, salt & pepper, or any seasoning you prefer, and put them in a 425 degree oven, tossing them around a couple times while baking, until they reach the color you prefer. It's best to put them on a baking sheet that's been in the oven while preheating so it's hot. Turnips now are perfect, but a little later in the year they turn more bitter, and that's why they have a bad rep :) Oh, and in the vegan cookbook I just got, there are a number of risotto recipes without cheese, so I'm sure yours will be fine!

Sound great! Thanks for the recipe!

And I can relate to the root vegetable obsession. :rolleyes:

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
