Foodbank just gave me a bunch of these. I don't know what type they are, but I usually enjoy mushrooms. I don't get to cook with them often though so I don't really know how to prepare them.

They smell fishy and kind of like shit. They also had a bit of a nutty flavor when I took a snall bite. They don't look bad, so I'm assuming that's how they should smell?

The foodbank also gave me a couple of pieces of salmon. Would they go good with some fish?

>> No.6570792

If you took a bite of the raw mushroom, they will taste weird. It's fine. Also. What is food bank?

Dice up and use in spaghetti sauce. Looks like enoki. If you have a ton of it, use a dehydrator to preserve them. Use them in soups and stews.

That is some unusually large enoki, they shouldn't smell of much though

Cut the bottom off and wrap the rest in bacon then put in oven until cooked or steam in something like a lekue or similar microwave steamer - makes a nice little snack.

Otherwise all I use enoki for is throwing in with ramen dishes or other asian noodle based things

No, they really don't. Enoki stalks remain thin from head to end. Beech mushrooms get a little wider. Even at their thinnest point, beech mushroom stalks are never as thin as enoki stalks.

They have a family resemblance to one another, though, both being shimeji-type mushrooms, just one's the fatter cousin. Kinda like Melissa McCarthy and Jenny McCarthy.

Thanks for the tips guys. Ya, I have too roommates, and we still struggle to pay the bills every month. We only use the foodbank when we really need to, otherwise we usually just get bulk food stuff from the store. Ours gets government commodity half the month, then donated food the other half. The donated food is what usually has good stuff like salmon and such. Not always, but sometimes.

Also, Mendocino county if you were wondering.

>salmon and mushrooms in my foodbank? No way you poor faggot!

Catering businesses, restaurants, institutions (retirement homes, some schools maybe), and other groups mass order a bunch of food, including salmon (which is on every sit-down restaurant menu everywhere always).
>Oh no, it's looks like we sold less than expected or ordered too much, what do we do!
Into the trash it goes!
>But wait, that's not socially responsible! Remember the people from the Food Bank that came around and said we could donate food that is close to expiring? Good for us and the community, and we all know to market a hip restaurant these days, we have to care about the community.
So they do that. They donate food. So it doesn't end up in the trash as waste.

So while your mom and dad buy a bunch of Chef Boy-ar-dee (yum!) around Christmas to donate so they can feel good about themselves giving poor people the 'beetus, restaurants and other groups have year round programs that cycle food into donations rather than trash cans and landfills.

Because of this, OP, if the mushrooms smell a little off, then cook them immediately. I think they are probably fine to eat and I would eat them myself, but don't put it off three+ days because they'll probably go bad in that time.

It is like those fags that insist on calling Portobello mushrooms by at least 5 different names. "Button mushroom", "Crimini", "Champignon mushroom", "Portobello mushroom", fucking etc.

You know what I call them? "Agaricus bisporus"

>> No.6573848

>>6573679
Entirely different.

Shimeji are a class of mushrooms.
There is no single mushroom called "shimeji."
And this class of mushrooms are all different species. Hence asking "what sort of shimeji?" Though both shimeji-type mushrooms, enoki and beech mushrooms are entirely different species. They're not even in the same family let alone the same genus. Nonetheless, they're both classified as 'shimeji' by the Japanese.

Similarly, shiitake, matsutake and maitake, as you'll notice, all end in -take, meaning that they are 'take'-type mushrooms according to Japanese classification. Three completely different families of unrelated mushrooms all classified under the same -take category.

Your example isn't a very good one because portobello, button, crimini etc are all the same species at different stages of development and with or without exposure to light while several shimeji refers to a broad category of various, largely unrelated species.

Also, on the same street as the food bank, are these places called "business establishments"

They often do things like sell food, sell apparel, sell items, provide services, etc.

These "establishments" require people called "employees" to operate them.

If you go to one of these establishments, you can enter into a contract with them, where they will pay you more than $9/usd per hour that you work there.

Just think, in 3.2 hours you could have enough money to eat 3 meals a day. If you work an actual 8 hours, you can have $72 dollars. If you do that 5x a week, they will give you a check for $360 dollars.
