Dave's mushroom ragout






Chopped button, shiitake and oyster mushrooms.


Mushroom ragout chef David Steinvurzel.








Ragout mushroom medley includes, in addition to the chopped button, shiitake and oyster mushrooms, rehydrated black trumpet mushrooms, sauteed shallots, shredded romano cheese, chopped carrots, arugula, garlic and thyme over fettuccine.




My salad borrowed some of Dave's arugula, and also included sliced radish, romaine hearts, toasted sunflower seeds and campari tomatoes.

Photography note: Dave shot several of these photos (those that are in focus, well balanced and, basically, make this tasty food look at least mildly appetizing).
