Clean the portobello mushrooms with a damp cloth and remove the stems.
Finely chop the mushrooms into small, even pieces to resemble the texture of minced beef.
Chop the walnuts into small, fine pieces by hand or using a food processor.
Finely dice the red onion and set aside.
Chop the capers and fresh parsley, and mince the garlic clove.
In a large mixing bowl, combine chopped mushrooms, walnuts, red onion, capers, and parsley.
Add dijon mustard, soy sauce, nutritional yeast, liquid smoke, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the mixture.
Mix all ingredients thoroughly, ensuring the dressing coats the mushroom and walnut mixture evenly.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Optionally, serve using a ring mold to shape into individual portions, garnished with additional chopped parsley.
