Do you cook 'em or chuck 'em?

Mushroom stalks? cook or chuck?

[jackie j]

Most of the time I chuck.

[Starchild]

I try to cook 'em, cos I'm mean.

[HeyWayne]

Even prior to that - "Chop 'em or pull 'em?"

I always chop the stalks off so they are level with the bottom of the mushroom - makes them easier to slice/chop.

Make sense?

We cook, have actually never heard of anyone chucking.....but then this is Yorkshire.

[Chillimad]

Always Always cook, IMO the stalks are the best bit

[janeyo]

I suppose I am extra odd.... I PEEL and pull stalks out, then chop the end bit off the stalks then use it in the cooking.

[HeyWayne]

Ooh, ooh, look piskie - 5 more posts to go. Can you make it....

[janeyo]

lol i know!

I have to. My dad always does and I guess it rubbed off. He is always banging on about peeling them so you know it's a mushie and not a toadie... I DO try and tell him they are mostly from Tescos (washes mouth out) but the thought it still there. Sometimes they are a right bugger to peel as well, then I make a small consession to just wash. But not often,
