What kind of mushrooms do you use for this recipe?
We love all kinds of mushrooms, and many can go with this easy side dish. In the photos for this post, we used cremini mushrooms. We like cremini mushrooms, because they are cheap and easy to find. Button mushrooms would also work and are very similar in size and taste to cremini. Some other options:
ShitakePortobello (just remove the ribs and slice them into chunks to sauté)PorciniChanterelle
That’s a lot of garlic
We went heavy on the garlic for this recipe, so let’s just get that out there. We thought a recipe described as garlicky should really have a strong garlic flavor. With that said, it’s up to you on how much garlic you actually want to use. If you don’t want as much garlic flavor, use a little less. Of course, we highly recommend using freshly chopped garlic for the best flavor.
