This encore workshop is an introduction to cooking with mushrooms. It is meant for people who are mushroom-curious but may not have a lot of experience with these delectable fungi. We will focus on basic, tasty recipes that can be incorporated into regular meals or fancy occasions. This includes a four-course meal with a mushroom snack, appetizer, and main course, and a side dish. Possible menu items include mushroom jerky, stuffed mushrooms, and mushroom risotto. We will also include a favorite mushroom-style dessert—our popular meringue cookies in the shape of mushrooms, which often adorn Christmas Yule logs. Of course, dessert would not be complete without mushroom coffee!

We will link to the Garrett College website as soon as the spring course registration is available.
