'''Portobello''' (alternately spelled: '''portabella''', '''portabello''', and '''portobella''') is a large [[mushroom]] that is the adult version of the [[crimini]] (brown button, or brown meadow) mushroom. Originally found wild in the foothill forests of the Pyrenees Mountains, their name comes from the Italian ''porto'' (opening) and ''bello'' (pretty). They were domesticated by [[Louis Pasteur]] and other French biologists.
