Mushroom

Served with rice, this asparagus and Shiitake mushroom sauté is a 10-minute vegetarian dinner

Frittatas are excellent served warm or at room temperature, which means that it’s a perfect do-ahead dish.

Saltimporten sources only the freshest wild mushrooms available and uses them raw in this dish. If using less-than-pristine mushrooms, saute them quickly in a neutral-flavored oil, such as grapeseed or vegetable oil.

A hearty, satisfying vegetarian take.

Don't bother peeling the onions; their skins add a nice, rich brown color to this vegetable stock. If you'd like, remove the skins for use in dishes when a lighter color is preferred, such as in risotto or cream sauces.

King trumpet mushrooms star in this salad served at Brooklyn's Prime Meats. They're available at many supermarkets, but you'll find them at better prices at many Asian markets. Crimini (baby bella) mushrooms are a fine substitute.

Flanked-Style short ribs, used for Korean barbecue, are cut across the bones instead of between the bones. Start this recipe ahead of time; chilling the ribs after braising keeps them from falling falling apart when they served (and all braised meats taste better the next day).

These glazed dried shiitake mushrooms are addicting. You've been forewarned.

Lentils and fresh and dried mushrooms give this vegetarian casserole its meaty character. You can prepare most of it in advance and bake it just before your guests arrive.

This stuffed chicken breast is elegant enough for a dinner party.

This mushroom risotto recipe is made even better with shredded turkey leftovers.

This comforting pudding from chef Andrea Reusing has the best of both worlds: a slightly wiggly center and a browned, crisped top.

The bite of mustard and the char of the grill amp up the flavor of tender but mild-tasting filet mignon. Be sure to have all the sauce ingredients ready to go before starting the meat. For perfect timing, add the cream to the sauce while the steaks are resting; they'll be done at the same time.

This Asian-inspired broccoli beef recipe will make you forget all about that takeout menu.

Marinate thinly-sliced mushrooms to create a simple, fresh salad.

Toss with spinach, escarole, or kale, or spoon over pork chops.

Red wine and pancetta add richness to the dish, but good beef broth really takes it to the next level.
