Fresh Pioppini

Today I am going to drop some knowledge about the great Pioppini mushroom. Pioppini are a member of the shimeji family which also includes Brown Clamshell and White Clamshell mushrooms. Pioppini basically have the same flavor as porcini mushrooms but are more peppery. Pioppini are often used in stir-fry dishes because of their firm texture and you can use the whole mushroom as in cap, stem, etc. Fresh and ready to go.
