Whole roasted mushrooms roasted with fresh sprigs of thyme make a rustic side dish that goes well with almost anything savory. And they’re a great illustration of how powerful fat can be for adding flavor to your cooking. Starting with some clarified butter in the pan gives you a that slightly nutty flavor as a base, and drizzling the mushrooms with olive oil brings out the flavor of the herbs even more as well as adding a flavor of its own. Try doing that with “calorie-free” cooking spray!
