Cooking mushrooms like meat enhances their umami richness; pressing them down while searing maximizes their density and creates a delicious crispness.
For this recipe, a heavy object helps achieve a beautifully golden sear on the mushrooms, creating a texture that mimics traditional steak preparation.
Using vegetable stock instead of wine creates a rich sauce too; just allow extra time for reduction while maintaining the dish's delicious character.
The recipe emphasizes the versatility of mushrooms, showcasing their ability to lend themselves to hearty preparations just like meat, particularly through techniques like basting.
