Mushrooms are pretty magical. They seem to appear from thin air in nature. They are spongy and mild when raw, but release incredibly deep flavors when roasted or pan fried. The oyster mushrooms in this recipe retain a wonderfully meaty texture and can be served with polenta or any variety of comforting carbs such as pasta or rice.
