How to wash mushrooms
It is important to wash your mushrooms properly.
Because they grow low to the ground, they may have been covered with dirt when you purchase them from your local grocery store.
Quickly wash mushrooms under warm water and using your fingers cleaning the tops of the mushrooms until they are a creamy white color.
Mushrooms are porous, so you do not want to soak them too long in water.
If you need to use a damp paper towel to rub the top and sides of the mushrooms to clean, that works well too.
It is best to wait to wash your mushrooms until you are ready to sautéed them. They tend to turn slimy if done too soon.
How to cut your mushrooms
I cut about half of my mushrooms and left the other half whole.
If you prefer them all whole or halved that will work great too.
The texture balance is fun and adds more thickness as a side dish.
Simply cut the mushrooms in half or slice them thick or thin depending on your preference.
