Growing mushrooms at home is simple and satisfying—it requires minimal space, no extensive gardening experience, and can produce results in five-to-six weeks. It’s easy to buy a ready-made kit, but you can also grow mushrooms from spores, or even store-bought caps, in a bucket or plastic tub, or on logs outside.
The Mushroomery features step-by-step, at-home projects for growing and cultivating different varieties of mushrooms. The second half of the book features more than 20 mushroom-forward dishes including recipes for pickling and drying mushrooms for preservation and to enhance their flavor.
Projects include: Mushroom kits; Bucket mushrooms; Jar mushrooms; Log mushrooms; Mushrooms grown in a bag; as well as information on fungi and its classification, the study of mycology, the life cycle of a mushroom, and foraging. A handy glossary helps the reader navigate the world of mycology terms, as well as guidance on equipment, ingredients, and sterilization.
