Cooking Tips: Mushrooms

When Cooking Mushrooms:
  • Do not wash with water to clean - remove grit with a paper towel

  • Typically, remove the stalks from shiitake mushrooms (keep them on for button mushrooms)

  • Slice mushrooms cap side down

  • When sauteeing, do not add salt to mushrooms immediately after they have gone in to the pan - wait for them to soften first or the salt will dry them out

Nice pairing: mushrooms and thyme
