Keeping Fresh Mushrooms Fresh

RE: Keeping Fresh Mushrooms Fresh By Leathersammie (4) Contact If you buy any mushrooms fresh, remove the plastic wrap and store them in the refrigerator in a brown paper bag. This will save your mushrooms for a couple of weeks! I was finally able to stop throwing away mushrooms! YAY!

I bought it cuz it was unique and I wanted to find out what it was. Now I know! Mine did not say mushrooms on it. Thanks again so much.

How do I package them? What do I put them in?

After cleaning them: Toss whole mushrooms in a pot of boiling water, bring back to a boil, let them cook for a minute. Drain, and immediately put in cold water or pour cold water over them. Drain, put in plastic bags and freeze. OR: Clean and slice (or chop) the mushrooms, melt butter n a large pan, briefly saute the mushrooms, remove from the pan to cool, put into plastic bags and freeze.

It is from Italy from bw. thanks dave Posted on 11/13/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Keeping Fresh Mushrooms Fresh By CalCook (Guest Post) Try using brown paper bags rather than plastic and store in crisper. Mushrooms hold up much better that way. Posted on 06/22/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Keeping Fresh Mushrooms Fresh By WIsgal (223) Profile Contact I have the greatest thing for keeping mushrooms fresh for 2-3 weeks. I have a MUSHROOM KEEPER. It is about 5 inches high, about 5 inches in diameter. Made of what looks like a clay pot with a glazed inside. Four holes in the lid. On the bottom of container is a sticker that says "Bentson-West Designs, made in Italy for Boston Warehouse" The word MUSHROOMS is etched on side. I found this at The Amana Colonies near Cedar Rapids, Iowa. If you ever find one, grab it, as I have never been able to find another for gals who would like one.

I buy mushrooms and I use half of the box and end up throwing the other half because it got spoiled after a few days... Hope this works for me. Thanks for tip again.

If I can get a better deal with packaged ones I transfer them to a paper bag ASAP. They never get slimy that way & if left for quite a long time, they dry out. They can still be used as long as they are not moldy. I purchase paper sandwich bags for this purpose.

I usually store mushrooms in the refrigerator in a bowl with a paper towel on top, which seems to help them stay fresh longer than the original packaging, but not for two weeks. I can't wait to try this! Posted on 10/25/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse
