The king trumpets are also called king eryngii, or king oysters (technically they're Pleurotus eryngii, and are closely related to the common oyster mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus). Their texture is firm and meaty and their flavor is mild.

Ingredients:

10 cups arugula, loosely packed, about 8 ounces
