“Becky Selengut has a thing for fungi, and we should all be grateful for that.”
— T. Susan Chang, NPR
Food Lovers Love Fungi
With a humorous voice, Becky Selengut guides the home cook through 15 species-specific chapters on mushroom cookery with the same levity and expertise she brought to the topic of sustainable seafood in her IACP-nominated 2011 book Good Fish. Selengut's Shroom is a book for anyone looking to add mushrooms to their diet or diversify their repertoire with mushroom-accented recipes inspired from Indian, Thai, Vietnamese and Japanese cuisines, among others.

—Kevin Gillespie, owner of Gunshow and author of Fire in my Belly
“With wit and whimsy, Becky Selengut cracks the code of every food lovers favorite fungi, telling us how to select, prep, clean, and store them—plus, of course, how to showcase them in recipes that will get stomachs rumbling. I thought I knew mushrooms, but after reading this book, my mind is spinning with delicious possibilities.”
