Meditative Mushroom Quote of the Week

Eggs and mushrooms are a combination that’s hard to beat, so I suggested sautéing (the mushrooms) and tossing them with spaetzle — those appealing little blobs of egg/milk/flour batter, but Mark was in Paris, where the bread is so good that adding other starches seemed to him like a waste of effort. Me, I’d go for the extra starch anytime, but I saw his point. So, I said, why not tear up some of that good bread, crisp the shreds in olive oil or butter and mix them with the cooked mushrooms? Like Spanish (not Tex-Mex) migas. Kind of.”

- Mark Bittman, on his “Bitten” blog for the New York Times

You can continue reading about how Bittman’s experiment turned out here but we couldn’t agree more- Mushrooms and Eggs are a force to be reckoned with.
