CHAMPIGNON, SLICED

Description:

The Champignon or White Button is the most frequently used of all Mushrooms. They have been cultivated by the French since the 1700's, but today the United States is the largest grower of cultivated White Button Mushrooms.  The Champignon has a mild flavor and firm texture which holds its shape well when cooked but does decrease in size.  The Champignon comes in sliced, kibbled and powdered form and merges well in gravies, sauces, cream soups, stews, pasta, casseroles and even stir-fry.  The Champignon absorbs flavors well in any dish.

Suggested Use:

When reconstituted, Dried Champignon are just as good as fresh, use them in any dish needing a mild mushroom flavor.  Take along on camping or hunting trips to add extra flavor to campfire meals!  Try them dips, sauces and cream soups or pair Champignon with rich and hearty stews, pilaf, casserole and stir-fry.  Easy to use in gravies and stuffing.
