Mushrooms Fall Festival at Convento de Belmonte

Each October to December Chef Valdir Dudek Lubave walks the forest paths in search of wild mushrooms - boletos, sanchas, and míscaros. And the guests at the Pousada do Convento de Belmonte in the mountains of the Centro Region, reap the fruit of the harvest. Now, small groups of 6 people can learn the tales of the hunt for the wild mushroom, and how to cook them, in the traditions of Central Portugal. What will one learn, well imagine a mushroom Cappuccino with a foam of aromatic herbs, a fresh cod on a bed of beurre blanc and Agaricus, veal scallops win a sauce of Morquela, and to finish pineapple of the Azores with mushroom, and a glass of mushroom brandy. Book a chef’s table today and explore the world of the mushroom. http://www.conventodebelmonte.pt/
