Marvelous Mushrooms

The Blind Pig Kitchen +Bar shares their best mushroom-lover's recipe.

Plant-based cuisine is gaining popularity as a result of the toll that the agriculture industry has on the environment in addition to health concerns. But just because a dish is meatless, doesn’t mean flavor is sacrificed. The Mushroom Saltado from the speakeasy-style restaurant known for an exceptional menu of New-American cuisine, The Blind Pig Kitchen + Bar, was inspired by a classic Peruvian dish, Lomo Saltado. This vegetarian version stars “meaty” tare-marinated mushrooms, puffed rice, scallions, topped with a soft-boiled egg, which is sure to please the palate of both carnivores and vegetarians alike.
