"Nearly any variety or combination of wild mushrooms—like shiitakes, oyster mushrooms or chanterelles—will be terrific here; cultivated cremini and portobellos are great too. If you choose portobellos, use a small spoon to scrape away the dark brown gills, since they impart an inky color and murky flavor...."
