40 Quick and Easy Recipes

by Jack Czarnecki, Alexandra Maldonado (Illustrator)

Portobello mushrooms are the most flavorful--and popular--of the cultivated "exotic" mushrooms that are now found in supermarkets and specialty shops throughout the United States and Canada. From the simple grilled portobello to portobello lasagna and portobello pot pie, this book offers recipes for 40 wonderful dishes made with this delicious, low-fat, low-calorie mushroom. 40 color illustrations.

Jack Czarnecki, America's foremost authority on cooking mushrooms, has written the first book focusing exclusively on the versatile portobello mushroom. The portobello, also known as the "portabella," "portabello," and "portobella," is deliciously satisfying and low in fat and calories. Portobellos also provide a depth of flavor that is difficult to achieve with vegetables alone, making them invaluable to vegetarians and others who want to reduce their consumption of meat.

A reader: 'Recipes are easy to follow, diverse, interesting and delicious. The explanations of the various stages of mushroom development and effect on flavor are very informative and worth more than one reading. I have purchased several copies of this book as holiday gifts for my friends who are fond of the portobello. When does next 40 come out???'
