Shiitake Mushroom

Roasting the vegetables, along with a trio of umami-rich ingredients (miso, mushrooms, and kombu), give this meat-free broth a deep, satisfying flavor.

This will take you back to the flavor of all those canned cream-of-mushroom-soup-based casseroles, but without all the weird ingredients!

Mature spinach has a stronger flavor than baby spinach and holds up better to this creamy dressing. 

Hearty, satisfying, and easy: Bulk it up with more mushrooms. Cut the entire recipe in half. Whatever suits you.

The nutty, woodsy mushrooms play up the sweetness of the carrots. Memorize the dressing—it’s great on pretty much everything.

Refrigerated resting is key to these burgers’ success. Air-chilling helps dry the burgers out slightly so they stick together in the skillet.
