Fancy some Wild Mushroom Pasta?
Did you know that today is National Mushroom Day (15th October)
Well to clebrate the day the the team at Yondu have shared this lovely Willd Mushroom Pasta plant-based recipe which showcases the versatility of this meaty vegetable.
Yondu is a plant-based, all-purpose seasoning that compliments the umami flavour of mushrooms. It is made from non-GMO organic soybeans which are triple-fermented over the course of 100 days, then blended with the savoury broth of onions, white radishes, leeks, cabbage, carrots, shiitake mushrooms, ginger and garlic to create Yondu’s unique flavour that celebrates the ‘Joy of Veg’.
The texture and satisfying bite of a mushroom is a great option for those trying to adopt a plant-based diet. In fact, Yondu’s flavourful Wild Mushroom Pasta can rival any Bolognese and is incredibly simple to make.
