Always! :-)
Hence the crab meat stuffing for the portabellos.
I popped the stems off of those at the store since they are sold by
weight. I'll post what I did when I'm done with them. I intend to use
FRESH dungeness crab meat rather than canned. Not quite sure yet what
else I'm going to add, but will probably use lemon, butter and dill weed
as the main flavorings. Maybe a bit of basil.
Ohh! It's a little difficult to find fresh pulps of crabs here. Perhaps you
can find near sea-countries. BTW I wait for this recipe: I think it's great!
I will just buy the whole crab and pick the meat myself. :-)
Better and less expensive that way. I can get fresh frozen dungeness at
Wal-mart for a decent price.

Yes, basil is a good herb, but I rarely use it for mushrooms because
mushrooms, IMHO, need parsley.
I did not have any on hand, but I'll keep that in mind.
Parsley has a rather sharp flavor. Might not need it with the celery.
Yes, Parsley has a sharp flavour and it is good for all the kind of fish!
Think that here in Italy, in the shops where they sell fish they sell also
parsley !
Hmmmmmm... I wonder how well that would go for Tilapia and Catfish?
Those are the two fish we eat the most of, along with White fish, as
they are more affordable. Fish can get very expensive.
I'll have to try that. Dill is usually my preferred fish flavoring.

A question: in my country, basil grew only in spring -summer because here
it
is too cold. How do you do to have it in winter?
You have said that you put
it in the greenhouse. I have tried to plant it in a pot inside my
kitchen,
but it din't grew.
I don't know why!
It needs direct sunlight and lots of it.
If you have a window with a south exposure, it might do ok!
Yes, I have windows everywhere (north, south, east and west).
Do you think I should (could) plant seeds now?
You can try!
Your main problem might be the cats! :-)
They might eat it as it grows.
Try a hanging basket to keep it out of their reach?
