Care and Handling of Gourmet Mushrooms.
Refrigerate Immediately: Store your fresh mushrooms in the refrigerator as soon as possible after purchase.
Breathable Storage is Best: Keep mushrooms in their original packaging, a paper bag, or a container with a slightly ajar lid. This allows for air circulation and prevents moisture buildup, the enemy of fresh fungi! Avoid airtight plastic bags.
Use Within a Week: For the best flavor, texture, and nutritional value, use your freshly stored mushrooms within one week of purchase.
How to Clean Mushrooms Properly:
Clean Just Before Cooking: The best time for mushroom cleaning is right before you plan to cook them.
Dry Cleaning First: For most mushrooms, gently remove any dirt or debris with a dry mushroom brush or a paper towel. This is often all that's needed!
Quick Rinse if Necessary: If your mushrooms are particularly dirty, you can quickly rinse under cool water. Pat dry immediately with paper towels to prevent sogginess. Avoid soaking mushrooms.
Important Mushroom Food Safety:
Always Cook Mushrooms Thoroughly: Raw mushrooms are not safe to eat. Ensure mushrooms are cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Cooking mushrooms not only makes them safe but also unlocks their best flavor and texture.
By following these simple mushroom storage and cleaning guidelines, you'll enjoy the freshest, most flavorful, and safest mushrooms every time!
