Portobello mushrooms

Portobello mushrooms come from the same species as a button and cremini mushrooms; they are merely harvested later than the other two, which explains why they are so much larger than their relatives. They have the strongest and most intense flavor of the three types since they have grown the longest. But since portobellos are so frequently used in food, most people shouldn't find the flavor of them all that disagreeable. Additionally, portobellos need to be among your faves if you typically enjoy the richness and umami flavors of mushrooms.

These mushrooms stand out because they are significantly larger than the majority of the other mushrooms on this list. Frequently, the stems are removed, leaving only the big crown. If you want to make a portobello mushroom burger, the cap is delicious just placed on the grill as is with a little marinade.
