I do most of the cooking at home, which is fine. My husband will do some basic meals, also fine.
Tonight I made some Korean vegetable pancakes that my girls like. Also made some pork.
As my husband doesn't like the pancakes, I asked what veggies he'd like to do for himself.
He proceeded to boil some mushrooms!
I'm genuinely horrified. He said he likes them.
Is this a thing? Do people eat plain boiled mushrooms?
What ways of cooking foods weird you out?

Well I do quite like mushrooms in a stew which essentially are just boiled I suppose. Never thought to just bung them in a pan of boiling water though. I’m quite intrigued!

Yes but in something like that they take in the flavour. Boiled in water would be 🤢
