Recipe Notes
There are two schools of thought on cooking mushrooms. One is that the mushrooms should not touch when they are in the pan and that you should cook them in small batches. This is because if they are too crowded in the pan, they will steam, creating moisture. If there is enough space they won’t steam and the exterior will caramelize, bringing out even more of the mushrooms’ umami flavor.
We will cook mushrooms both ways, based on what we want from them and how hard we might want to work. With a frittata you want it to be simple and ideally use only a single pan, so toss the mushrooms frequently while cooking them long enough that the steam evaporates.
