Mushrooms

As an environmental scientist, I am always trying to make sustainable ingredients shine. Not only are mushrooms delicious and nutritious, but when sourced locally and in season, they’re also considered a sustainable crop.

They have a relatively small environmental footprint as they require little water and energy to grow and emit very little CO2.

Check when mushrooms are in season in your area with this Seasonal Food Guide.

Mushrooms are such a great way to add umami to any dish, and they are so versatile! From portabello mushrooms to baby bellas, porcini, oyster, and shiitake mushrooms, you’ll find all my favorite mushroom recipe’s here.
