Mushrooms (Pratajuoli) ‘Al Burro’4
Take large mushrooms, clean them carefully, break off the stalks and peel the tops, put them on a gridiron, season with a little pepper and salt, turn them, and when done serve up on a very hot dish; put a good piece of fresh butter on to each, and a squeeze of lemon. Place them in a hot oven for a minute, or even in front of a hot fire, and serve on buttered toast.
Notes
4 Agaricus campestris. The mushroom usually cultivated in England.
