[Sca-cooks] recipe using portabela mushrooms?

[Solveig]

Noble Cousins!

Greetings from Solveig!

Agaricus bisporus has increased in popularity in North America with 
the introduction of two brown strains, Portabella (sometimes also 
spelled portobello, portabello, or portobella) and Crimini. The three 
mushrooms you see to the right are all actually the same species. 
Portabella is a marketing name the mushroom industry came up with for 
more flavorful brown strains of Agaricus bisporus that are allowed to 
open to expose the mature gills with brown spores; crimini is 
actually the same brown strain that is not allowed to open before it 
is harvested. Per capita consumption of fresh Agaricus in the United 
States is about 2.2 pounds (1 kg) per year. Many people love to eat 
mushrooms in omelets, in stir-fry, on salads, and in soups. Marinated 
and grilled portabella is a treat not to be missed. Mushrooms are an 
excellent low-calorie meat substitute with great nutritional value 
and lots of vitamins.. (Tom Volk and Kelly Ivors)
