The Mushroom Taco offers a savory and earthy flavor profile complemented by tangy pickled onions and fresh herbaceous notes of cilantro. The sauteed vegetables add sweetness and depth.
Earthy mushrooms are the star, providing a meaty texture and umami flavor. The sauteed vegetables offer sweetness and additional textures. Pickled onions deliver a tangy acidity that cuts through the richness of the mushrooms and vegetables, while cilantro adds a bright, fresh, and slightly citrusy note. A corn tortilla provides a mild, slightly sweet base.

Mushroom Selection
Use a variety of mushrooms (cremini, shiitake, oyster) for a complex flavor and texture. Different mushrooms offer different umami levels and textures, contributing to a more complex dish.
Pickling Perfection
Allow the pickled onions to sit for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight, for the best flavor. This allows the onions to fully absorb the pickling liquid.
Tortilla Warmth
Warm the tortillas before filling for a softer, more pliable texture and enhanced flavor. You can warm them on a dry skillet, over an open flame, or in the microwave.
Spice it Up!
Add a drizzle of your favorite hot sauce or a pinch of chili flakes for a touch of heat.
