The Gourmand's Mushroom. A Collection of Stories and Recipes

The Gourmand’s Mushroom. A Collection of Stories & Recipes is a medley of stories and recipes dedicated to one of the Earth’s most mysterious, influential and quietly radical ingredients.

Revered as food, medicine, sacrament and symbol, mushrooms appear and disappear with equal speed, leaving an unmistakable cultural and culinary imprint. This volume brings together The Gourmand’s signature blend of culinary craftsmanship and cultural research, exploring the power of fungi as myth, muse and inspiration.

Through essays ranging from ancient folklore and toxicology to avant-garde art, architecture, fashion, cinema and even space travel, the book constructs a visual and literary universe where mushrooms are celebrated as sculpture, pattern and form. It features references as unexpected as Hieronymus Bosch and Beatrix Potter, María Sabina and the CIA, Yayoi Kusama and Takashi Murakami, amidst covens of witches, amanitas, fly agarics and the allure of lingzhi. Alongside the texts, an extensive collection of original recipes explores their more earthly and umami side, from Cantonese-style stuffed mushrooms and crispy tempura to pierogi, risotto, ramen seasonings, wild mushroom ravioli, classic duxelles and traditional mushroom ketchup. The book opens with a lyrical reflection by chef and writer Jeremy Lee, and serves as a visual feast, fanzine and field guide all in one.

Key features:

  • Binding: Hardback.
  • Pages: 292.
  • Language: English.
