Portobello mushroom
|
The Portobello mushroom (sometimes portobella) is a large brown strain of the common button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus). Portobello mushrooms are distinguished by their large size, thick cap and stem, and a distinctive musky smell. Because of their size - and the thickness of their fleshy caps - these mushrooms can be cooked in a range of different ways, including grilling and frying.
They are larger cremini mushrooms.Template:Food-stub
