Mushrooms in the news

The May/June issue of "AAA World" (the AAA's mid-Atlantic magazine) has a nice little story about Kennett Square with a great headline: "The Gift of the Fungi." The writer, Jennifer Maguire, quotes Jim Angelucci of Phillips Mushroom Farms and Kathi Lafferty, owner of the Mushroom Cap and organizer of the Mushroom Festival. The article also gives Tina Verrelli's recipe for shiitake, ginger and pork pot sticker soup, which won the amateur division of the cooking contest at last year's fest.
