Well, yesterday (11th October) on a tour that I led we ate one of the most prized mushrooms, Amanita caesarea, known locally as &#8220;tana&#8221; and in English as Caesar&#8217;s mushroom; it was prized highly by rulers of the Roman Empire. The mushroom has a wonderul subtle nutty flavour and can be eaten raw or sauted. When eaten raw it should be cut into thin slices and sprinkled with sea salt and with a light dressing of fine extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\nIn the first photo below you can see the distictive orange cap of the Caesar&#8217;s mushroom. In the second photo the mushroom we ate is being prepared in a small frying pan with a little garlic and parsley. A lot of people add nothing so that the flavour of the mushroom is not masked by anything else.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aqot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/DSC_0042-1024x576.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/aqot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/DSC_0042-1024x576.jpg\" height=\"180\" width=\"320\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aqot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/DSC_0044-1024x576.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/aqot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/DSC_0044-1024x576.jpg\" height=\"180\" width=\"320\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aqot.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Food and wine tours Seville Spain<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In my last post, I talked about the porcini mushrooms that we ate in the Sierra of Aracena whilst on an Iberian ham tour.
