Queen Camilla and King Charles 'obsessed' with item in recipe
The recipe holds great significance within the Royal circle
Tom Parker Bowles, the son of Queen Camilla, has recently shared insights into a cherished dish frequently enjoyed at the Royal residences of Highgrove and Birkhall. The recipe, in Tom's book 'Cooking & The Crown', makes use of one ingredient that his mother and King Charles are particularly 'obsessed' with.
"A dish I've eaten at Birkhall and Highgrove many times," the Royal, who turned 50 in December, penned. "...this is a take on Omlette aux Fines Herbes, with the addition of GruyĆØre and mushrooms."
Translated as 'omelette with fine herbs', the formula Tom provides combines three eggs with both English and Dijon mustard, whisked alongside parsley, tarragon, and seasoned with salt and pepper. Tom then guides readers to fry the mixture in a 'neutral oil' for a short period, before grated cheese and mushrooms are introduced as the base solidifies.
While the recipe may appear straightforward, it has great significance within the Royal circle, especially for Queen Camilla and King Charles, who have an intense passion for mushroom foraging.
In a separate entry, Tom explained: "Wild mushrooms are somewhat of an obsession, with Charles III and Queen Camilla deeply competitive about their hauls." What's more, is that mushrooms are very nutritious too, thanks to their impressive potassium and mineral content.
Potassium especially is what's integral in mitigating the negative effects of sodium in our bodies, which can help reduce blood pressure and other cardiovascular risks. However, a number of academic studies suggest that more research is required to get a better grasp on these impacts.
In 2021, a systematic review led by the US-based Baylor College of Medicine, noted: "Edible mushroom consumption may have favorable effects on lipid profiles by changing some metabolic markers such as low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, total cholesterol, and triglycerides.
"Moreover, edible mushroom consumption is probably associated with reduced mean blood pressure. The beneficial overall cardiovascular risk, stroke risk, and coronary artery disease of edible mushroom consumption are not consistent."
Nutritionist Helen Bell from UK Care Guide, previously told the Mirror that eggs can support weight loss efforts too. At the time, she said: "In my experience, consuming eggs as a snack can actually be quite beneficial for weight loss. Eggs are high in protein, which helps to increase satiety and keep you feeling fuller for longer.
"This can reduce the overall calorie intake throughout the day. But, it's important to watch portion sizes and prepare them in a healthy way, like boiling or poaching, to avoid adding unnecessary fats."
Later, she went on: "Eating 'clean foods' such as chicken, fish, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds can, in my experience, be incredibly beneficial for weight loss. These foods are typically lower in calories and higher in essential nutrients compared to processed foods. They provide fibre, which aids in digestion and helps maintain a feeling of fullness.
"In my experience, clients who switch to a diet rich in these foods often find it easier to manage their weight because they are consuming more nutrient-dense calories that support overall health and metabolism."
