It is a testament to the author’s passion for mushrooms and their vast culinary potential, and not only is it a comprehensive guide, it’s a visual feast as well. I can’t wait to get cooking!”— Cynthia Graubart, James Beard award–winning cookbook author of fourteen cookbooks, cooking teacher, and culinary television producer “This book is a love letter to those of us who are passionate about foraging and creating good food with our mushrooms and should be required reading for anyone who delights in what’s out there, in the forests and meadows, awaiting the curious—and hungry—forager.”— Britt Bunyard, PhD, noted lecturer, author, mycologist, and founder and editor-in-chief of Fungi Magazine “This cookbook is a celebration of mushrooms. The recipes are approachable yet adventurous, making it perfect for both beginners and seasoned chefs. As mushrooms—particularly wild varieties—continue gaining popularity, Krista’s book offers valuable guidance to those exploring the unique culinary potential of mushrooms.”— Jack Hamrick, cofounder and CEO of Foraged—A Marketplace for Wild and Specialty Foods “Krista Town’s expert knowledge and indispensable guidance will help you navigate the incredible world of mushrooms and fungi. Her new book is the ultimate culinary resource for both foraged and cultivated varieties, with recipes that are sure to inspire even the most ardent mycophiles.”— Ray Sheehan, restaurateur, multi award-winning chef, and cookbook author “Elegant in its culinary presentation, Mushroom Gastronomy is a mycophilic delight that inspires broader and more playful kitchen experimentation with edible mushrooms.”— Foreword Reviews “Put this one on your 2024 must-read list. Towns is the culinary editor for Fungi Magazine and culinary advisor/recipe developer for a premier mushroom farm. The recipes — 120 in total — range from ambitious to accessible, and they're all exquisite.. Beyond the recipes, she offers up nutritional values, cooking methods, culinary tips and flavor pairings, making this the ultimate culinary resource for home cooks and professional chefs alike.”— Fantastic Fungi

Review: Mush love, as they say - Great book. Beautifully bound and presented, and I love how the content is organized. Each section focuses on a certain type of mushroom and starts with some notes on things like history and availability, what to look for when selecting them fresh, best way to store them, flavor and texture, how they react to different cooking methods, and what they pair well with, followed by a few pages of recipes. For me, as someone who hasn't cooked with a lot of exotic mushrooms, these intro pages are especially valuable because they give me an idea of how different varieties actually taste and what types of dishes they might complement well *before* I invest in all the ingredients. The photos are beautiful too. It's definitely a cookbook first and foremost, but it could pass as an art book or light mycology reading at times. I recommend it for anyone with access to fancy culinary mushrooms, especially foragers and cultivators looking to expand their repertoire.
Review: Nice! - Lovely descriptive book with great recipes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Must-Have for Mushroom Lovers
*by C***N on 26 July 2024*

First, I never realized how versatile mushrooms could be. If you love cooking or are a fan of mushrooms, “Mushroom Gastronomy: The Art of Cooking with Mushrooms” is a must-have for your kitchen. This book completely changed how I see and use mushrooms in my cooking. The sections on different types of mushrooms, their flavors, and how to select and store them are incredibly helpful. I felt much more confident using mushrooms after reading through the first few chapters. But the real magic happens with the recipes. They are easy to follow, even for someone who isn’t highly skilled (like me). The recipes range from simple appetizers to hearty main courses, and there’s even a section on desserts. The photos are stunning and make every dish look delicious. They really add to the experience and make you excited to try out each recipe. It’s not just a cookbook; it’s a celebration of mushrooms. Plus, there’s great information on the health benefits of mushrooms, which is a nice bonus. It’s perfect for anyone looking to elevate their cooking and explore the amazing world of mushrooms. I highly recommend it!
