Notes: We don’t always remove the crusts from the bread - go by how hard the crust is; A hearty bread like oat nut or whole wheat works well. Extra sharp cheese works well. We prefer shiitake mushrooms, but any fresh mushrooms will do. Canned mushrooms can be substituted, but they don't taste as good and don’t offer the same textural element as the shiitake.
