A unique dish, rich and tasty ideal for these cold that have now reached all of Italy. A mess that also allows us to recycle any stale bread.
The taste of mushrooms will make this dish really delicious. Here I used Champignon because they are very common and easy to find, with a delicate taste and divine pairing with bacon.

Ownership:
Mushrooms do not belong to any basic food group. They have a modest content in vitamin D and zinc, are low in calories and can be eaten raw or cooked, in various recipes of appetizers, first courses, main courses and side dishes. Although mushrooms are very common on the table, they can have some contraindications as, like all fungi they produce toxins and in particular situations, it is advisable to avoid them or reduce them considerably. The number of warnings increases if mushrooms are harvested in the wild rather than coming from official farms.

Historical outline of the project:
The cultivation of the mushrooms was already known in the first century A.D. Their cultivation was already in the caves, but the actual cultivation began in 1650 in the surroundings of Paris, with the discovery that a good horse manure mixed with the residue of crops of various vegetables could give rise to good mushrooms. Funghiculture in Italy was born only in 1913, near Vicenza, in artificial caves.

Notes:
In Italy the term champignon is used as a synonym of grasshopper. In reality, even if almost no one is aware of this distinction, as we have already specified, the champignon would be a particular species of the genus Agaricus. However, there are similar species, but not edible or even toxic (such as A. xanthoderm). Moreover, in nature we can find also "apparently" similar but very poisonous fungi (like the Genus Amanita).
