Enjoy a sumptuous Ossobuco with Wild Mushrooms; all-rounder classics such as Mushroom Lasagne and Mushroom Ratatouille; and even learn how to preserve your own mushrooms at home. Each recipe features a personal introduction from Carluccio filled with expert notes and charming anecdotes from his life and career.
