While many mycological societies and festivals cancelled their events this year, not so the Long Beach Peninsula Wild Mushroom Celebration where a fine collection of restaurants are offering mushroom focused dishes. We congratulate them all for persevering in this difficult time, and especially the China Beach Retreat for their wonderful breakfast entrée which we have printed below.
Laurie Andersen (The Shelburne Inn and China Beach Retreat) suggests that it "carries over nicely from breakfast into lunch and dinner. It can be finished in an oven, or flipped and served in a sauté pan by simply adding a couple of tablespoons of water, then covered to contain the steam and finish the cooking." For 2-3 person servings, steam the entrée, for 6 or more, such as the recipe below, finish in the oven.
Pig's Ears (Gomphus clavatus) could be a nice inclusion
in the assorted wild mushrooms option of this entrée.
