Guest guest Posted November 22, 1999 Report Share Posted November 22, 1999 addition: I should have said that the burgers are shiitake and tempeh - combined! so there is more texture. -----------------[previous]------ were these reviewed before? Sams sells mushroom burgers locally it's a 12 pack for $9 sold by http://www.shiitakeya.com/ many of the sites pages are under construction... A winner! We tried them tonight and were nicely surprised. good things! they remind me of ground turkey burgers in taste, chew, and dryness. I served them with no-egg noodles and a stir fry of bok choy, carrot, mushroom, red onion, garlic, cilantro and thyme. Sauce was pasta water, veggie bouillon and about 2 tablespoons of annies vegetarian mushroom-ginger sauce. well, i should have made a chipotle sauce because the burgers are smoked. still it was a great meal. The product is a meat substitute and smokey - so that limits it's versatility. I plan on crumbling some in a lentil soup, spiked with chopped spinach and served on spaghetti (i think that was Kristan's idea... thanks) and it might go crumbled on a foccacio (sw style). In a multi bean soup. And as a burger (sandwich) -- maybe on rye so it competes with the smokiness. Bob likes it far better than seitan or tempeh. cooking: we tried the foreman. preheated. the frozen patties cooked in 4'30 " - They weren't heated in the middle at our first guess: 4 mins Box says open grill pan takes 7 mins. Or heat for 3 in the microwave 100g or 3.5 oz pattie 129 cals 1 g fat 400 mg sodium 7g fiber - - - - pat xposting with vegrecipe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
