Use a selection of mushrooms now available in most stores to provide a unique flavour: shiitake, oyster and crimini combine well with white button mushrooms. If fresh herbs are available, use them for added taste. If using shiitake mushrooms, discard stems. This side dish can easily be transformed into a main meal by tossing the mushrooms with pasta and cheese.
