Scientists at the Mushroom Technological Research Centre in Spain claim the best way to cook mushrooms is to microwave them but one TV chef disagrees. David Mooney told 5 live Breakfast: “[Scientists] should stop coming out with these daft statements that mushrooms are better cooked in a microwave, they’re not.” “Scientists don’t do taste. We do taste, the chefs. How awful to make a mushroom look like a webbed foot. No, no, no - never.” This clip is originally from 5 live Breakfast on Monday 22 May 2017.
