Sleek, flower-like, and hollow, the Black Trumpet Mushroom is perhaps the richest flavored mushroom in the fungi kingdom. Often used in egg, cheese and Salmon dishes or made into an elegant sauce, the Black Trumpet Mushroom has earned its distinction as the "poor man's truffle". Our Black Trumpet Season runs from November through February.

Baked Salmon and Black Trumpet Mushrooms

1 ounce Dried Black Trumpet Mushrooms
2 ½ cup Chardonnay
3 Cloves Garlic
1 teaspoon Oil
4 Salmon Fillets
Sea Salt
¼ cup Fresh Chives (chopped)
3 Tablespoons Butter
1 teaspoon Lemon Juice

Soak Dried Black Trumpet Mushrooms in Chardonnay for 30 minutes to overnight. Meanwhile place Salmon in a baking dish skin side down and set aside. After soaking Black Trumpets, chop Trumpets into small pieces. Heat Oil over medium heat and sauté Trumpets and Garlic for 2 minutes or until the garlic releases its flavor. Season the mushrooms with Sea Salt and place on top of Salmon. Bake at 400 degrees for 12 - 15 minutes. Near the end of the baking time, melt Butter in a small pan with Chives. Once Butter has melted, add Lemon Juice. Take Salmon out of the oven and flip over to peel off skin (the trumpets should be attached to the salmon by now). Serve Salmon with Mushroom side up and drizzle with the Chive Butter. Enjoy!
