Outback wild mushroom sauce
    #19252430 - 12/09/13 08:38 PM (10 years, 1 month ago)

Where does a chain restaurant like outback get enough wild mushies to support any menu item like this. Tony Roma's also has a wild mushroom dish.

Just curious if anyone knows or possibly has a hand in the deal. I also wonder if this stuff is like 0.003% wild mushrooms just so they can print it on a menu.

Now that I think about it, that may be better for the mushrooms and the environment.

they would probably say "our lawyers tell us that 'wild' is an adjective modifying 'sauce' and not mushroom despite what the client may be inclined to believe"

Whenever I'm at a restaurant and can actually see what the mushrooms are (because they're still reasonably whole), they pretty much always turn out to be mostly Oyster Mushrooms and Shiitake.

Happy mushrooming!

:whathesaid:

I think they pretty much consider anything besides Agaricus bisporus "wild".

A fruit & veg store not far from me sells wild L. deliciosus and slippery jacks when they are in season.

Nice,
If you can get up that way... Woodend/Gisborne/Macedon/Mt Macedon has some excellent pine forests to go looking within... And good actives too, lots of forest and cow paddocks.

I used to live down that way and in fact found my first actives in a garden bed near the big cross on Mt Macedon.

Me, unfortunately, I have to drive several hours to get slippery jacks. Although I do get Lactarius sp around my area, I'm not sure what species exactly. I'll need to wait until they pop up again.

yeah I'll have to head up that way next winter, hunting in suburbia just isn't as fun.

That's basically it. A pinch of dry boletes and/or chantarelles makes it 'wild'. The rest are various cultivated mushrooms, except A. bisporus, because people know what those look like. Depending on the availability, oysters are dominant, with a bit of shimeji, P. eryngii, shiitake etc., just so it can look like a mixture.

I went to a chinese restaurant and got something called "four kinds mushroom" and it had A. bisporus, shiitake, oysters and Volvariella volvacea which were amazing, the taste and texture is a lot like scallops.

Usually wild mushrooms at restaurants are just portobello or shiitake if you are lucky.  Only high end ones use chanterelles or porcini.
