Hello Pamela,
It was my first time to harvest wild mushrooms. One of the most treasured experiences during my vacation. Though I agree with you, I am no expert as well when it comes to deciding which one is edible and non-edible.
I have never picked wild muchrooms, and would be afraid of picking the wrong ones. I do think your recipe sounds excellent.

Hi Rinita,
Yes, you can use any kind of mushroom. The most common mushrooms available in the market are shiitake and button so you can try these two.
How incredibly simple! Does this work with regular button mushrooms?
