In fried rice you're using (or should be using) stir fried 'shrooms (frying firms texture and concentrates/enhances flavor by removing water), but in soups and stews there is no difference whatsover with canned button 'shooms or fresh button 'shrooms... in fact canned button 'shrooms are typically much better quality than what's usually available so-called fresh. When comparing one must take into account usage and type of 'shooms... with soups and stews dehy 'shrooms are FAR superior to canned or fresh. Making a blanket statement all canned 'shrooms suck indicates cooking ignorance... some fungi are only available canned (straw 'shrooms). These are excellent and a great price: http://tinyurl.com/ycxlheq http://www.amazon.com/Green-Acres-Sh...9698505&sr=8-2 |
