Mushroom Selection & Preparation
Choose a variety of mushrooms for a complex flavor profile (e.g., cremini, shiitake, oyster). Clean the mushrooms gently with a damp cloth instead of washing them to avoid waterlogging. Slice them evenly for consistent cooking.
Grilling Technique
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Toss the mushrooms with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any desired spices (e.g., cumin, chili powder). Grill until tender and slightly charred, flipping occasionally. Avoid overcrowding the grill to ensure even cooking.
Pico de Gallo Freshness
Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the pico de gallo. Dice the tomatoes, onions, and jalapenos finely. Season with lime juice, cilantro, and salt to taste. Prepare the pico de gallo shortly before serving for optimal freshness.
Tortilla Warmth
Warm the corn tortillas before assembling the tacos. This makes them more pliable and enhances their flavor. You can warm them on a comal (griddle), in a dry skillet, or in the microwave.
