Creamy Polenta with Mushrooms and Soft-Boiled Egg
It’s hard to imagine a more comforting dish than this one with fall flavors. The polenta is made from very fine cornmeal, its creaminess pairs perfectly with mushrooms. For a complete meal, I add sautĆ©ed mushrooms and a runny egg, all dusted with Parmesan.

Cheese and Herb Stuffed Mushrooms
Here’s a recipe I created to empty the fridge that was such a hit I had to share it, because I’ll definitely make it again. Mushrooms stuffed with cheese, fresh herbs, and caramelized onionsāeasy and quick. You can serve them as an appetizer with small mushrooms or as a starter with larger ones.


Mushroom Tart
I love tarts and quiches as much as I love mushrooms. This week, looking for a change from my traditional mushroom quiche, I came across a recipe from chef Ottolenghi that inspired this dish. I simplified it with what I had on hand and adapted it to our tastes, and everyone loved it. The tarragon and dill combination pairs beautifully with the mushrooms and gives it an original flavor. The classic quiche custard (eggs + cream) is replaced here with a delicious mushroom cream (which can also be made dairy-free). Let me share it with you!

Chicken with Black Mushrooms and Bamboo Shoots
Chicken with black mushrooms and bamboo shoots is a fragrant Chinese recipe I’d been wanting to make again for a long time. Last week I found the missing ingredients, so here’s the recipe.

Gnocchi ai Funghi - Creamy Mushroom Sauce
These gnocchi with mushroom sauce smell like autumn and comfort food. The “ai funghi” sauce is an Italian classic, as famous as Bolognese sauce. It’s a quick dish (if your gnocchi are ready) and excellent. Potato gnocchi are a great alternative to pasta as they absorb the sauce beautifully.
