The Portobello mushroom variety belongs to the same species as the white mushroom (Agaricus bisporus). They are big, open, brown-colored mushrooms. The diameter of Portobello mushroom's head can grow up to 15 centimeters. The open mushroom indicates that some humidity has been evaporated. The reduced humidity concentrates and enriches their flavor as well as creates a dense and meaty texture.

Due to their high rate of respiration, this mushroom needs good air circulation where they are stored. Because of their long growth cycle, Portobello mushrooms offer a rich flavor and a meaty texture.Try marinating the mushrooms and grilling them on the BBQ. Morover, Portobello mushrooms can be used as entrées, side dishes, or even main dishes.
