Mushroom Herbs – Many Top Combinations:

You can season mushrooms in different ways. Loosen in the pan with the fried mushrooms or, for example, stuffed mushrooms in the oven. Mushrooms have a mild taste and there are a number of herbs that match very well. Other seasonings, which are not herbs, go very well with mushrooms and I will briefly mention them. We start with the question ‘Which herbs go well with mushrooms?’

  • Thyme 
  • Salt and pepper 
  • rosemary 
  • Garlic 
  • Marjoram 
  • dragon 
  • Coriander 
  • Parsley 
  • chives  

Other seasonings can be: soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, soy sauce or lemon juice 

Before you start working with mushrooms, there is one more thing that needs to be done and that is cleaning the mushroom. Mushrooms can be grown in horse manure, cover soil, and some other stuff. To avoid getting any of those things in your food, you can clean the mushrooms with a mushroom brush. This is also possible with a kitchen paper.

Mushrooms And Herbs

Herbs are very well absorbed by mushrooms, especially when moisture is added, such as butter, gravy or herb butter or sauce. Mushrooms have a mild taste so they can be combined with some herbs as you can see above.

Not all at once of course. It is up to you which and how many herbs you want to add to the mushrooms. Taste, taste and taste is the advice until you are satisfied with the taste. But that doesn’t just apply to mushrooms, of course. That goes for everything you prepare, but that aside. 

There are some spices that you add last, because the taste diminishes when they are baked or cooked. These are the soft herbs such as parsley, chives and coriander. You can chop these herbs and put them through the dish, use them at the end or as decoration.

You can also cook mushrooms in stock. Yes really! You can read all about it in our blog ‘ How to Cook Mushrooms? Multiple ways ‘.

Mushrooms Baking Herbs

When you fry the mushrooms in butter or a delicious olive oil, you can use these combinations as an example. We have also written a blog about baking mushrooms, ‘ How to Bake Mushrooms? Many possibilities! tells you all about it.

  • Combination 1
    • Fresh garlic
    • salt
    • Pepper
    • Thyme or Marjoram
  • Combination 2
    • Pepper
    • Fresh garlic
    • soy sauce manis
  • Combination 3
    • Coriander
    • Fresh garlic
    • Pepper
    • salt
  • Combination 4
    • Chili powder or sauce
    • dragon
    • Pepper
    • salt

Of course, the herbs or spices also go ‘on their own’ with the mushrooms. There is no need to use a combination, but that depends entirely on your taste and what you want to use the mushrooms for. They are examples. Experiment with spice combinations that are completely up to your taste. Add small amounts, then taste and add herbs if necessary. This way you can discover how many and which herbs you like more with mushrooms.

With mushrooms, which you can bake with herb butter, you basically don’t need to add anything. These are already excellent to eat because of the herb butter.

Herbs For Mushrooms

It is useful to know how to use the herbs in mushrooms and what you should pay attention to. You can add some herbs right away and others only after you have prepared the mushrooms. A number of herbs are discussed below.

  • Parsley
    • Parsley is added last to a mushroom dish otherwise it loses its flavor.
  • Thyme
    • Thyme can go into the oven with the mushrooms (as a twig or needles, whether or not broken or ground). The taste is given to the mushrooms after heating some oil and the herb. Thyme can also be added dried to a mushroom (dish) during baking/cooking. This gives thyme time to impart its flavor to the mushrooms.
  • Coriander
    • Coriander is added last to the mushrooms in connection with loss of taste. It can be boiled for a while, but not too long. Coriander can also be used as decoration.
  • Marjoram
    • You can prepare marjoram with the mushrooms when you do this last, otherwise it will lose its taste. Dried marjoram must first be ‘sorted’ soaked in the dish before it can release its flavour. So then taste it.
  • Garlic 
    • Garlic can be fried or roasted with mushroom (dishes). When you add it to a baked dish, for example fried potatoes, add it last and fry it for a while, otherwise the garlic powder will burn. When you put garlic powder in a sauce, you can do that at any time.
  • dragon
    • Tarragon can quickly dominate mushrooms. Use fresh leaves cut by the mushrooms but in moderation. You can also use dried tarragon for the mushrooms, but not last. Moisture must be able to absorb into the small pieces of dried tarragon otherwise you will eat dry hard pieces. When the dry tarragon has absorbed moisture, it can release its flavors.
