The common mushroom.

I like to slowly cook .5kg for about 2 hours, then just eat them plainl. Sometimes, I use them in place of meat for vegan fajitas or burritos. I'm not vegan, I eat turkey and fish frequently, but I really like some vegan recipes, especially ones that make heavy use of mushrooms.

green onions go in everything, go on everything, raw, cooked, you name it

Intelligence is knowing tomato is a fruit, wisdom is not putting tomato in a fruit salad.

I love me some red meat but I'm telling you, if I could get my hands on any fresh cheap mushroom I wanted at any time I would never eat meat again.

I like mushrooms bu they are kinda expensive, a completely pain in the ass to clean, and i don't really how to cook them well.

Do you only put then in a pan/pot with medium heat and move from time to time? Do I need to add any liquids?

>>8648597
Yup except use a cast iron pan and don't move them around, let them brown at least 3-4 minutes before turning and doing the same thing on the other side. They have so much water that eventually gets evaporated, you usually don't need to add anything.

Once they've browned and released a bunch of water you can move them around and add seasoning, I like a small amount of worcestershire and soy sauce with black pepper.

best vegetable coming through

>>8648597
Heat olive oil in a pan. Dice a large onion and saute it on medium/high heat until it's almost uniformly browned.

Get a pound of button mushrooms. Cut your mushrooms into quarter-inch slices and toss them in the pan with the browned onions. Mix them together, add a sprinkling of salt and pepper, then cover the pan. Cook until the mushrooms are soft and dark, but before the onions are burnt. It's one of my favorite sides to make for a steak or roast.

>>8648597
When I do the slow-cook method mentioned in >>8648163, I add water as it evaporates and just boil them in about 2cm of water for those 2 hours, adding a bit of water about every 15 mins, then stop adding water and let it evaporate. Eventually, the liquid turns into sort of a thickened mushroom sauce and although the mushrooms turned nearly black, they're moist and meaty (haha).

I call this method "fry boiling".

Avocado, broccoli, eggplant, onion, and edamame.

I bristle at mushrooms being called vegetables, even culinarily, but they'd top all five if I were to count them. Specifically shiitake.

garlic

Sweet, delicious gems. If you don't like brussel sprouts, you're a big time fag

>>8648615
>>8648315
These two for me. Brussel sprouts are a bit too seasonal, but I eat broccoli almost every day. I dont know why its so good...

>>8648163

Even if onions ain't your personal favourite, you can't deny it's the GOAT regarding cooking

>>8648964
> properly prepared
do tell

>>8649017
Blanch it for a couple minutes to make it way less bitter and saute it, ideally with sauce that's more on the sweet side and noodles.
I usually hate bitter stuff but that shit is good.

>>8649017
>>8649025
Oh, forgot to write to cut it in half lengthwise and scoop out the middle before making small pieces.

For me it's the carrot, the best kind of vegetable.

Pumpkin!

Perfect main ingredient veg... can be sweet as in pies, tarts, muffins OR it can be savoury, goes great in lasagne, pastas, soups. And it's low calorie, just 6% carbs, it's pure flavour.

>>8648163
Not what op asked for

I just really like leaves.

Yet you have no problem calling avocados vegetables?
