Portabello mushrooms are really versatile. They can be the star of the plate or a fantastic accompaniment to your favorite dish. Their texture makes them an excellent alternative to meat.

When purchasing portobello mushrooms, look for those that are firm and uniform in color, not spotted. For a stronger earthy taste, choose thicker mushrooms with a darker color.

If you buy prepackaged mushrooms, leave them in their packaging and keep them in the refrigerator. The packaging is designed to keep the mushrooms fresh.

If you buy mushrooms in bulk, place them in a brown paper bag. Do not use a plastic bag. The plastic causes the fungi to decompose faster due to humidity.

Do you know ?

You can’t wash you Mushrooms. Mushrooms are like sponges, they soak up water. This is why you should never put them under the tap or let them soak.

Here how to clean them;

1- Clean with a damp cloth to get rid of traces of soil and any insects.

2. You can rub them delicately with a small brush, it’s even more effective. You can use a nail brush or toothbrush (new of course) to do this.

3. You can scrape them with a knife. It’s quick, easy and the result is impeccable.
