Sauté fresh oyster mushrooms in a generous amount of butter. Add cracked black pepper to your taste and a little lemon juice to enhance the mushroom flavour. Serve on toast, or a bed of English spinach when in season. Great recipe for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Can substitute Swiss Brown mushrooms for the oyster mushrooms.

I love to have local mussels cooked in wine with charred bread. They are easy. Just clean them up, fry shallots in butter in a large pan then add the mussels and about a cup of white wine. Steam for five minutes until the shells open. Discard any that don’t open and serve with parsley, pepper and the bread. Yum!
