Mushrooms are highly seasonal preparations in Spain, especially when it comes to those woodsy, earthy varieties. In the fall, folks head to the forest to forage and make these simple yet insanely delicious recipes with their Ibérico pork and mushroom bounty.
Other than salt, pepper, and oil, you only need 4 ingredients to execute this dish. If you have a grill, we highly recommend using it for this recipe. But if you don't, a well-oiled and hot cast iron skillet on the stove is a great place to cook mushrooms of any variety, along with fried eggs and Abanico pork.
