Warm Grilled Mushroom Salad

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes Salads
This dish is a play on temperatures and textures: hot, meaty roasted mushrooms meet cold, crisp salad greens. The flavors released during the searing of the mushrooms add depth to the salad, which is highlighted by the acidic dressing.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Skillet or Grill Pan
  • Salad Bowl
  • Paper towels (for cleaning mushrooms)

Allergen Information

⚠️ None

Instructions

1 ✓

Clean mushrooms (wipe, don't wash!), and slice. Heat oil, add whole garlic cloves for flavor, then remove garlic.

Tip: Mushrooms act like sponges. If washed, they will never brown nicely, only boil.
2 ✓

Sear mushrooms in a single layer until golden brown. Salt and pepper at the end.

Tip: Salt only at the end, as salt draws out moisture causing mushrooms to steam.
3 ✓

Mix greens and vegetables in a bowl. Top with warm mushrooms.

Tip: Let mushrooms cool slightly, otherwise the salad will wilt from the heat.
4 ✓

Drizzle with dressing immediately before serving.

Tip: Acid and salt break down cell walls, making salad soggy if it sits too long.

Recipe FAQ

Why did the mushrooms get watery?
You crowded the pan. If mushrooms are piled up, they steam instead of sear. Cook in batches!
