Stalker has noticed that the new ingredient touted on cooking recipes is mushroom powder.
Apparently it will change your cooking forever.
Stalker has also recently read a recipe for making your own umami sauce, to add to dishes and to give them that elusive fifth flavour bump.
Alternatively you could use homemade mushroom ketchup, using 500g of sliced mushrooms to get that umami flavour going- the recipe is elsewhere in this edition..
