The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
We saute mushrooms on the grill with McCormick's Grill Mates Brown Sugar Bourbon and olive oil. Get the shrooms nice and carmelized. Great pre-dinner app.

I use a lot of these blends.
I can't pick a favorite off of my spice rack, b/c everything is important in one dish or another. We don't stock celery salt in my house, b/c my wife HATES celery. If I put a 1/4 teaspoon in a pot of soup, she'll know, and she'll be pissed.
i grind dried porcini mushrooms to add umami to some of my soups (especially wild rice and mushroom). it's great.
It was wild to me making Japanese food and not adding a single grain of salt because the dashi and miso are both so salt heavy. I love things that add salt and flavor at the same time instead of just adding it separately.

My kids "hate" mushrooms, and if they see them, they won't eat. This is a good way to save a dish that they would have otherwise ruined with their whininess.

people so often avoid salting their food, thinking it's bad for them.
fun fact: we get only 5% of our daily sodium intake from salt that we add to our food. the other 95% comes from the processed crap that we eat and drink.
Five spice powder is one of my favorites now. There's a Thai place by me that does pork belly and pickled greens in five spice broth. One of the best things I've ever eaten.
