Garlic Mushrooms, Queens of the Kitchen

By Ella Simmons

Almost all housewives know how to cook. Not all of them, though, use cooking recipes, but they rather base their cooking on gut feelings. Maybe this is why restaurants are full every night.

Learning creative ways of mushroom recipes is not that complicated. Beware though at forest mushrooms, because if you don't recognize them very well, you may pick poisonous ones and get sick.

If you are afraid of picking the wrong ones, just go to the store and buy mushrooms from there. Champignons, the white ones, are delicious, and you are safe. They are cultivated in special farms, not in the woods.

Cooks know that mushroom is a complete aliment, full of nutrients and especially rich in vitamin D. Vegetarians could eat mushrooms instead of meat and feel well and healthy. Mushrooms give energy.

Cook books with mushroom recipes are almost all over the place, in libraries, in bookstores, or even on the internet. Cooking sites can help housewives find new ways of cooking this delicious food. The additional ingredients can completely change the overall taste of a dish.

All mushrooms have to be thoroughly washed before cooking. This means that you need to take them one by one, and put them under a jet of water, until all dirt between the blades has been removed. Then you can let them stay in water for a few more minutes.

If there are any tiny insects hidden between the blades, they will get out and you'll obtain clean mushrooms which are ready to be cooked. If mushrooms are big, cut them in pieces. Smaller ones can be cooked as they are.

Cook the mushrooms very well. Eating them raw can make you sick. There are some restaurants which offer salads containing raw mushrooms, but I'm not sure that is a good idea. Besides, cooking kills part of the toxins, so do it well.

Mushrooms can be cooked in many ways. Grilling and baking are two of the most popular ones. Grilled mushrooms get a delicious taste from the charcoal and smoke, so many people love them. Too bad you need a courtyard to do this, because if you grill them indoors, you'll find it hard to get rid of the smell in your house.
