The pic of the yellow oyster mushrooms is stunning. It looks like something from outer space!

The yellow oysters are just so lovely! Have you tried morels this season yet!?! Their in season and soooo good! I’m loving how simple yet robust you made all the shrooms! Niiiice. Hope you two are well.

These fresh mushrooms are so tempting and the way you prepared them is the best! a splash of cherry, a splash of cream, some garlic, some herbs, et voilà! Perfection.

We don’t have–as yet–the gorgeous variety at our green markets, local shiitakes and morels so far. Your bruschettas feature some the best ways to savor them—love a splash of sherry in the simmer, and the chive flower garnish.

Better WANF than WOW, that’s for sure. Look at you two, getting all down-home local and sustainable. I’d write more, but I have something in my eye.

Great pics of the mushrooms! The taste of such fresh mushrooms is surely unmatched and what a great way to showcase them on that bruschette. Great simple, fresh flavors.

I love mushrooms! I may actually have to try making this. Jonny just told me about chive flowers ~ I didn’t know they were edible.

I’m excited that the outdoor farmer’s market season is starting this coming weekend. Yes, I’ve had the indoor season all winter, but pickings for actual fresh produce are slim. It’s about 20% produce and 50% baked goods, and the rest is cheese, meat, eggs, and flowers. Not that those are bad things, mind you. I have been faithfully buying eggs, milk, and chicken from Feather Ridge Farm all year long. I just want some veggies and fruits!

Of course farmer’s markets out here in suburbia aren’t always as well-stocked as those available to the city folk. I don’t see mushrooms like that in the Community Markets. (I do see some on my brother’s oak tree though and he’s sometimes willing to share). You look like you had a lot of fun with these. Bread, garlic, olive oil, mushrooms, cream – what’s not to love?
