Cooking time is key 

Mushrooms cooked for a short time will taste fresh and retain a good bite to their texture. Cooked longer, mushrooms will release more of their water content, becoming softer but with a more intense flavour. 

Add instant flavour 

Using a different variety of mushroom can elevate the flavour profile of any dish. To add a more intense flavour, use Portabello or Brown mushrooms, or use White Buttons for a milder flavour.

How to prepare mushrooms

  1. Use a dry cloth or slightly damp paper towel to brush off any dirt. Don’t submerge them in water. Mushrooms act like a sponge so water will be absorbed, which causes the final cooked mushrooms to be squeaky instead of flavourful and browned.
  2. No need to peel your mushrooms before eating – the skin is packed with essential vitamins and minerals.
  3. Yes, you can leave the stalks on – less waste, more goodness!
