Whether you’re a dedicated mushroom forager or you rely on the store or farmer’s market for your fungi fill, you can make the most of your mushroom haul with The Mushroom Hunter’s Kitchen. Professional chef and mushroom foraging expert Chad Hyatt shares his favorite recipes, plus tips and techniques for cooking mushrooms safely and maximizing their flavor. This is your guide to creating incredible meals (and snacks, and preserves, and even desserts!) using the humble and ubiquitous button mushroom, the revered morel, the common oyster mushroom, the elusive huitlacoche, and everything in between. Chad will have copies of his book for sale at this event.
