Vegetable Pot Pie with Mushrooms and Spicy Mushroom Tamales

This lesson is all about mushrooms, or fungi. Mushrooms have a savory
quality that is associated with protein. The Japanese call this quality
umami. If you’re only cooking vegetables, you might discover that you
miss the savory flavor associated with animal protein. You can take advantage
of the umami flavor inherent in mushrooms by incorporating mushrooms into
the recipes that you cook, such as mushroom pot pie and mushroom tamales.
