Field mushrooms, also known as Agaricus campestris, are a popular variety of edible fungi commonly found in grassy areas and meadows. Native to Europe, these versatile mushrooms have a mild, earthy flavor that complements a variety of dishes, from salads to stir-fries to creamy soups. Nutritionally, field mushrooms are low in calories, fat-free, and a good source of vitamins and minerals, including B vitamins like riboflavin and niacin, as well as selenium, potassium, and phosphorus. They also contain antioxidants that may support immune health. Field mushrooms are an excellent option for vegetarians and can serve as a flavorful meat substitute in many meals. While generally healthy, it’s important to ensure mushrooms are sourced responsibly, as wild mushrooms can sometimes be confused with toxic varieties. For optimal nutrition, pair them with fresh, whole ingredients to enjoy their benefits in a balanced diet.
