What goes with Black Trumpet Mushroom?
A black trumpet has little solid flesh: its thin, hollow funnel folds into a soft ribbon when cooked. Fresh specimens give woodland savour and a dark, gently fruity aroma without the weight of a thick cap. Drying produces a more concentrated seasoning, so whole fresh funnels, rehydrated pieces and powder serve different purposes and should never be exchanged by equal volume.

Pairing principles
What pairs well with Black Trumpet Mushroom?
Soft shallot and restrained thyme give the mushroom a clear aromatic setting, while pasta and light dairy hold its juices across several bites. Fruit works best as a small tart counterpoint to the dark savour. With game birds, vary the physical relationship: mushrooms inside a moist filling taste and chew differently from a crisp layer underneath a freshly sliced breast.
