Mushrooms:

• You can use a variety of edible mushrooms such as cremini mushrooms, portobello mushrooms, or shiitake mushrooms. To prepare the toasts, I chose white button mushrooms. The taste of all mushrooms will be different.

Garlic:

• It gives a super delicious flavor to the dish. You can add less or a high quantity of garlic depending on your food choice.

Butter:

• I used unsalted and softened (normal temperature) butter. It provides a creamy and rich texture.

Miso paste:

• You can find this paste at any supermarket, or vegan-friendly stores.

Vegan Ricotta:

• Instead of this item, you can use hummus, or vegan cream cheese for extra flavors.

Topping:

• You can add chopped black pepper, vegan grated parmesan cheese, sliced green onions, or pickled onions.
