How do you usually eat mushrooms?
I'm the first comment, and I don't eat mushrooms
@@alduinbb
So sorry for you.
Varied diet, can be unique to logistics, or cultural influences.
Our intolerance for basic foods only backs up the theory .
Genuine adverse reactions happen.
This is not new.
Common sense.
@@bcallahan3806 what. I'm not allergic I just don't eat them

Unless you like glyphosate as a seasoning, it's worth it to wash off the pesticide. As mushrooms are very absorbent, the flour trick mentioned below might help as well to remove pesticide.
Mushroom did wonders in my life. I could remember several years ago after divorce with my wife which brought me into my disastrous journey on Alcohol and cigarettes. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.
No doubts shrooms are 100% blessings from nature. Indeed nature's little miracles
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
YES very sure of Dr.benfungi. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
Mushrooms are very medicinal. This is why anybody familiar with psilocybin and any other kind of fungi will tell you, "They are alive." They have a very ancient wisdom. To my experience, all mushrooms have always said, "Pay attention to your life. How you think, how you feel, and what will you do with the information that you always knew, but now are seeing in this point of view." This is why mushrooms are so respected in tribal cultures. This mental health treatment works for me too. Half micro doses do the trick for me. At least a few days at a time with lengthy time in between. Never addictive. Thank you for sharing this point!
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
I start out on medium high heat with a dry pan- no oil- and let the mushrooms roast around for a few minutes before adding anything else to the pan, seasonings or oil. I saw this technique years ago and find it's easier to control the oiliness/moisture better this way. But whatever works and suits your taste is what's best!
Spot on, I do the same thing. Mushrooms aren't all soaked in oil or butter and brown up real nice. Its the only way I cook mushrooms now.
Like your response. I watch videos on how to 'cook food properly' then do it as I normally do. I'm Chinese. I like to stir fry or saute my veggies.
Cast iron or what?
@@amitisshahbanu5642 i dont think the type of pan would matter to much, just start out dry and stay focused, dont leave them alone too long

This video: Do not wash your mushrooms.
Pre-packaged mushrooms label: “Wash before use.”
Exactly. Always wash your schrooms.
My ma once got a swollen lips, due to eating deep fried unwashed oyster mushrooms.
Ill-advised video. 🤦🏻
Use a damp paper towel and brush you fungi.
You don't need to shower with them, geesh.
@@Systemaman You don't need to, but it absolutely doesn't hurt them.
it's been tested and proven that washing mushrooms in water doesn't waterlog them, truth is one mushroom doesn't even absorb a full gram of water plus, it's literally impossible to overcook mushrooms, you can burn them however
Yes, I'd rather wash them than eat muck. They are 90% water to start with.
Yes I agree. I also learned in india to put a tsp of flour once they are wet massage the flour into a muck and rince it all off with water.
Yes ,and even if the myth was true they still get the water cooked out of them so what difference would it make?
Remember what Paul Stamets said about button mushrooms on Joe Rogans podcast?... important.
@@realrasher what did he say?
After seeing Alton Brown at Cal Poly University in San Luis Obispo talk about cooking and prepping mushrooms, he explained that part of their growing medium was powdered horse poo. He said, "Do I wash my mushrooms? You better believe I do!" I wash my mushrooms, it doesn't harm them in any way.
Steve smith. It may have escaped your notice, Organic vegetables are grown using Manure (ANIMAL POO). Non organic veg is grown using chemicals. as fertilizer.
@@THEJR-of5tf ...so, the moral is, Wash Your Food!
But washing them with water won't really help with that. Any bacteria that was there before will still be there after
@@nsn27 ...the little bits of black stuff (whatever it is) that can visually be seen is washed away. It may not get rid of all the bacteria, but it helps me sleep better at night...lol
@@nsn27 It's not about the bacteria. The heat from cooking the mushrooms will kill most of them and when the bacteria gets into your stomach juice, it would die anyway. What you want to get rid of is dirt and spores and brushing it will not get rid of it completely unlike water.
This video is trying to give advice without giving clear direction on how to accurately follow their mushroom. Don't undercook your mushroom but also don't overcook them. Wow! Who would've thought of that
Actually cooking mushrooms on low heat is great if you intend to use them for a sauce. In that case the water that seeps out should be drained off into the sauce for even more flavour. However, I always use butter for mushrooms, never oil.
I like the watery mix when I cook mushrooms. As a vegetarian, I can thicken it and get an awesome meatless gravy.
Mushrooms are a big part of my vegan diet. The umami flavor and perfect texture make a great meat replacement. For protein, I eat beans, tofu, tempeh, etc.
Sounds like an awesome vegan curry recipe. Shiitake shrooms, lentils, brown rice, coconut milk, etc
am a veggie but are mushrooms animals or plants or some other unclassified life form,beside fungus
Drain it and save the juice.. finish browning , then add back the juice and make gravy.. its so yummy
@@andreasobuaculla9511 fungi are actually their own thing they’re neither plant nor animal. They have things that set them apart from plants. That said they’re still pretty tasty
I've tried washed vs unwashed brushed "clean" mushrooms. I can't tell the difference, except that I don't have to throw out as many dishes because there's dirt in them. You can throw them in the oven on low for a bit (use a rack) if you want the water gone. Salad spinner works fairly well too. I think this rule came from lazy restaurant cooks who don't bother to wash their food properly.
Why would you have to throw out a dish just because it has dirt in it?
@@danielcadwell9812 tastes a bit gritty
@@The_Savage_Wombat Do you mean the actual dish? or the food?
Its not dirt though. Its probably poo
What kind of idiot would throw away a dish because there’s “dirt” in it are you actually being serious you really do that?

@@bobmcdougall1027 Nor do mushrooms. Wash the damn things.
@@englishatheart I belive it depends on the mushroom, but i do agree with washing.
I've always thoroughly washed mushrooms. Anybody who says water sogs mushrooms, hasnt cooked it. It's impossible to overcook mushrooms. Idk who came up with this 'wipe your mushrooms' idea. But if you want the dirt off, just wash it. Simple
Nope I cook mushrooms all the time. They can’t be overlooked or undercooked but they can definitely get soggy and that’s just a waste of food
Never had my mushrooms get soggy....but I've had that damn grit between my teeth cause I didn't wash them thoroughly enough.
Greatest mushroom mistake you can make? Failing to THOROUGHLY and VIGOROUSLY wash all the mud and gunk off.
Once you have clean mushrooms, you can eat them raw, steamed, sauted, roasted, etc. But the most important thing to do with mushrooms is WASH them!
@@langreeves6419 you need yo learn to clean them properly. I never had to eat dirt because I clean every mushroom individually. You can cut away stubborn dirt if needed.
@@Visitkarte or just wash them
I think this started with wild edible mushroom picking and chefs Antonio Carluccio et A.l. in pro kitchens and Local Environmental health advice is always wash any vegetables fruit,salads etc. To remove soil based pathogens and airbourne and pesticides etc. I know alot of chefs who don't though, also say someone else mention Heston Blumenthal did a test on washing and not washing as they are about 90-95% water they don't asbsord to much when rinsing them
But sometimes, especially if buying sliced mushrooms, they tell you to rinse well before use.
(Don’t judge me for buying pre-sliced mushrooms, I buy preprepared veg. I’m disabled and find it less painful to get the prep work done first)
Disabled or not. You cook'em the way YOU want. Don't let youtube rule Your life ! ...
Enjoy 😊
Wow ... I really appreciate it. I just had Oyster Mushrooms turn quickly! I kept them in the open Plastic bag that they are sold in! I will place them in a paper bag from now on! This was a very informative post! Thanks
Ive learned some valuable tips. Thank you. Also, I've accidentally discovered how intensely flavoured dried out mushrooms are, when I found and used some old, dried out ones in the bottom of my freezer! Best for stews and risotto.
Before you put mushrooms on pizza, marinate them in olive oil salt and pepper, ore the spices to your liking 😋😋😋
Ooooo cooking wisdom, thanks I'll do that
Alton Brown already dispelled your first “mushroom mistake”. Mushroom are already saturated with water, so HOW could they possibly take more water?
Mushroom miistake
So... I'm doing EVERYTHING wrong, and I still enjoy my mushrooms.
Lol another brown belt like me
Blumenthol, award winning 3-Michelin star chef, debunked the washing mushroom's myth. I used to spend tons of time wiping them. Unless you have fragile delicate mushrooms like Chanterelles, a nice rinse is the fastest, easiest, and best way to clean mushrooms.
I always freaked out about how to wash and cook mushrooms and i never liked mushrooms when i made them myself.
Yesterday I boiled the shit out of mushrooms, like until the water was almost gone
Randomly added 'everything bagel' seasoning and garlic.
I frkn loved them. Ate them pure like that
@@MqKosmosthat sounds chaotic
Why does everything have a "nutty" taste? Guess I'll just buy nuts then...
No, because nuts taste just like chicken.
Today's fad language. And so many just copy......
Something might taste nutty but has a different texture. Perhaps people with nutallergies can appreciate this. Yeah, shocking right.
Lmfao so true.
If you buy the nuts, try cooking them with mushrooms, to give them a nuttier taste.
#1, damn I always ran them through a load in the dishwasher before cooking.
I use butter, not oil. While salting is best at the end like they said, try heating your oil/butter ahead of time with your other seasonings of choice. That way when the mushrooms uptake the oil, it takes the seasoning flavor into them and not just a surface seasoning. It also ensures more even seasoning. It's even more effective on things like Shallots that impart their flavor over time.
ricky dona said it right. Mushrooms do not absorb water when washed. I'd rather a water logged mushroom than eat fertilizer.
Your too much water or not enough oil is bogus. I cook my mushrooms in a dry pan to start, let the water come out and cook away then salt and butter and a bit of olive oil. Sautee till browned adding what ever seasoning you like.
There are so many ways to eat mushrooms. I love them raw in a salad, on pizza, and my two favorite things are "Beef, Mushroom, and Barley Soup" and "Mushroom Risotto".
I just cook them however I feel like and haven't noticed a problem.
Washing the mushrooms allows you to use less oil to cook them. The water evaporates and then they caramelise .
You wash them at the last minute before you cook them or they become slimy. They do not soak up water by washing them and if you know how they are grown you want to wash them
I LOVE ❤️ MUSHROOMS I EAT THEM ON PIZZA, I LOVE ❤️ MUSHROOM OMELETS, I LOVE ❤️ STUFFED MUSHROOMS, I LOVE ❤️ SAUTÉED MUSHROOMS ON MY STEAK, I CAN EAT MUSHROOMS BY THEMSELVES, I LOVE ❤️ MUSHROOMS IN SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH ANY KIND OF CHEESE, I LOVE ❤️ CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOM SOUP AND CHEESE CASSEROLES, I LOVE ❤️ MUSHROOM SOUP.

Mushrooms sometimes comes with dirt on them. Always wash them.
They do but the "dirt" is sterile. They're not grown in fields they're grown indoor farms. You can simply wipe it off and not worry about it.
@@Adam_Outdoors the dirt is only sterile for a short time. you think after waiting 2-3 months for the fruits to pop that its still sterile? nope.
you gotta eat a peck of dirt before you die

Fried with fresh garlic.... Yum yum!!!
@@5argetech56 MMMmmmmmm... I could be STUFFED to the Gill and I watch these videos and Food network and get HUNGRY AS ALL HELL!!!

I like mine with a bit of butter added.
I open plastic covered mushrooms as soon as I get home, use a shaving, (soft) brush to take off the remaining compost and only break them with my hands to the size I want. Perfect everytime!
You can never overcook fungus. Salting them early really helps draw out the moisture.
This is the only reasonable comment I’ve read on this thread
Yes you most certainly can burn fungus.
@@sewagedump OP said overcook, not unburnable
@@this_foo_right_here Burnt is overcooked...
@@keepdancingmaria like when you order a steak blue rare and it comes out Medium...then thats burnt?
Fry well in a bit of butter,garlic and chilli. Yum!
I agree with the damp towel, washing will change the flavor drastically as well. Paper towel is best. I use ghee install of oil. Or butter and peanut oil. Using ghee gives you the butter flavor and removes the need for adding oil. There are tons of video on making ghee yourself! Do it! I use it all the time now, and use little oil since making my own ghee. Seasoning salt with herb and garlic seasoning is delicious. Cook till caramelized.... Perfection with steak, steak tips or any beef dish.
I’ll definitely stop soaking them, but I’ll still rinse off the dirt. Thanks for your tips though. I will definitely cook them in a separate pan to dehydrate them if all the liquid before adding to my potato soup I’m making tomorrow. ❤ I’ll definitely try the paper bag method, that sounds like it will be easier to simply dust the dirt off for the next time. Glad I. Seen this video.
No less an expert than Jaques Pepin say it's fine to wash mushrooms. Just do it right before you cook them, so they don't absorb the water all the way through.
Happy Holidays and thank you!
Such great information about cooking mushrooms. I watch this whenever I cook mushrooms.
I 'll cook my mushrooms to my liking.
No Mushrooms for you!!!
I dare you to say that about pasta 😋😋😋
I discovered accidentally that I can dehydrate mushrooms in the refrigerator in paper bags. When I had too many mushrooms and had to travel unexpectedly, I left some mushrooms in a paper bag. When I returned from the trip after two weeks, they were almost completely dried out. These work very well when cooked in rice or slow cooker foods. Now I but extra just to have dried mushrooms on hand for a more intense flavor than fresh mushrooms provide.
I always buy extra mushies so I can dry them and make mushroom powder. I use that in all sorts of dishes, it gives everything that "umami" flavour!
Thanks for the info. I needed it.
Thank you for the tips. Especially about storing them after opening the plastic bag. I usually store my vegetables in thin cotton bags. I haven't done that with mushrooms, don't know why and is rather stupid of me. Will do so from now on.
Water is the enemy of the Maillard reaction and caramelization. Both happen above 100 °C, the boiling point of water. If you can remove the surface water first (with high temperatures), you can reduce the temperature after the water on the surface is gone. I assume that if they are already dried out, you don't really need to go to high temperatures at all (140°C to 165°C). Sun drying is best if you're in a cold climate (vitamin d2). Also, the smoke point of butter is 150°C. That isn't a bad way to go.
Most world reputed chefs (Jacques Pépin, Martha Stewart, Lidia Bastianich) advise to pre-wash mushrooms quickly and vigorously under running water, to dry them with a soft kitchen towel, then proceed with your recipe. I pre-wash them (about 5 seconds, twice) under running water, shake them well, and cook them as I like. It always turn out firm and tasty. Mushrooms grow very close to soil and they are always picked by hand. Eating them as they come, health wise, is not a good Idea.
Now I know I'm not going to die by eating a unwashed mushroom thanks.
Thanks for the info! Good to know. 👏👍
I almost exclusively use dried forest blend mushrooms. I'll give them a quick rinse first, and break off any hard stalks, but they usually go in the pan still dry. If I presoak them, it will be in a liquid to enhance their flavor...Like red wine mixed with Worcestershire sauce and MSG to saute in butter for a steak.
since I used canned mushrooms > they go into a dry pan.
Hello, mushroom enthusiast here. I do not recommend not washing, but you should definitely try to use as little water to do the job, along with a small brush (like a toothbrush). No soaking (unless recipe states so).
My favorite way of cooking champinions is not discussed here, so I will share this secret that changed my dishes. After I slice them thinly I put them in a pan at medium to low heat and wait for excess water to come out. If there is too little, try adding a little on top (depends how much you crowd them). They should boil for a few minutes, which will cook them slightly but also stop them from absorbing oil. They should darken only slightly. Once most water is gone add just a small amount of oil/butter and saute for a couple of minutes and they are done. Firm texture, not soaked in oil and flavorful, I use them for omlettes, salads and sandwhiches. They also keep well in the fridge for a few days if the mushrooms were fresh and firm when cut, which is very much desirable. Using butter instead of oil will give them a nuttier taste but should be done at low heat to avoid burning.
When using any other mushroom than the Paris kind you will probably have a lot of sand, sawdust and other stuff sticking on them that really needs to be rinsed off with a lot of water. I once saw an interview with a Belgian 3 stars chef that was a bit surprised when the interviewer suggested that mushs shouldn't be washed. His answer was about clients not being to keen on eating sand when they ordered a dish with wild forest mushrooms ...
Wow, so glad I found this! Embarrassed to admit this but pretty much everything stated in this video was completely unknown to me previously 😂
No matter what, am still washing them before cooking
mushrooms are 70% water so a few mL extra from washing isn't going to matter
Instead of throw away shiitake mushroom stems, they could dry them and turn them into powdered mushrooms to use in anything...
Very best video cooking tips. I love mushrooms. I make breakfast with eggs, spinach, onions, bell peppers. Only thing is I always missing Mushrooms. Thank You.
I make a mushroom/butter sauce for pasta or soup by cooking sliced and chopped mushrooms in butter in a medium tightly covered pot with some salt. The idea is to get as much of the liquid in the mushrooms out, pouring it off every few minutes, adding some more butter and continuing until you've got as much as you can get from them. Now the resulting butter sauce has a delicate but distinct mushroom flavour that you can't get any other way. I use the cooked mushrooms in gravy or in cream of mushroom soup to put back some moisture. You can also soak them in water for a while and they'll recover nicely. I've done this for years and it always works out and tastes great.
I've washed and only brushed off mushrooms before preparing then. Honestly, I found no difference in how the cook. I feel more comfortable washing( rincing) them 1st. I usually put them in a colander to dry off before slicing and or cooking. But if I'm using them in a soup or stew I don't care if they're wet.
Washing mushroom is just fine. They do not "act like sponges"; they do, however, absorb some water if left soaking or aren't dried after washing.
Thank you, so helpful!
Thanks soooo much for this video. I did not know any of this information. I do love mushrooms and this was soooo helpfu😊
Washing mushrooms properly is not a mistake. 😒
I will continue to wash my mushrooms. I’m not interested in eating dirt and what if they were dropped on the floor at the store or in transit where an employee’s shoe had just stepped in poop and the mushrooms happened to be there on the floor. Like no thanks. I’ll wash my mushrooms.
Thanks for the awesome tips
Store mushrooms in a paper bag? I can do that. Also, I slice up mushrooms (usually button type) and dry them, which is easy to do in my dry area of the country. They have a very strong fragrance.
Mushrooms don’t get waterlogged.
Mushrooms are ABSOLUTELY DIVINE!!!!!!!
I pretty much cook them medium high with a little oil . I use large portabella mushrooms for salad but I bake them with a dressing of olive oil scallion and garlic , balsamic vinegar😉
Great lesson, thank you ❤
I use to believe most of these “rules”. Then I saw a video that debunked most of these cooking instructions. I was skeptical at first...but I tried it myself and I’ve never looked back. Many of these other “tips” are questionable or case sensitive. A few are flat out bunk!
Like what?
@@BillOweninOttawa washing mushrooms with water for example.
While it does turn them mushy and slimy, it takes hours or even days for that to happen.
So if you use them on the same day you wash them, you can use water without problem.
If you work in a professional kitchen though, where you often clean loads of mushrooms and then store them in the fridge for half a week+, then washing with water is bad.
Source: Me that worked in a hotel kitchen for 3 years.
Too much bad information! BAD information!
For real, if you use too much oil the mushroom will just soak up all the oil and all you will taste is oil and not to mention all the wasted oil and calories. A good tip is to actually cook the mushrooms with a bit of water in the pan and then finish them in a hot pan with oil, you’ll use 90% less oil and they will taste better
Thank You.
Great education! Thanks for the info..........................................................
It depends on the type of mushroom how you prepare it. Wild black trumpets, for example, call for several vinegar baths to clean them.
mushrooms are grown in dung, I'm washing mine first.
Well, it's actually composted dung and/or other organic matter.
Please don't take offense, my motive is to be helpful. Mushrooms grow upwards out of the material they grow in, the caps are way up out of it before they open, and gravity stops it getting back in. In a box of fungi, the caps still are opening, if you get to a new box that is undisturbed in the market, you will like how clean they really are. The last of the nasty bit is usually cut off with the stem tip before you get them, the odd spot of dark dust is easily brushed off. You can get completely clean mushrooms by being selective with loose mushrooms, try to avoid them once they are all tumbled together. If you can, try out the flavour, unwashed, then make an informed decision please, it really makes a big difference.
Depends wich mushrooms most are in sawdust hay or logs
@@Mark-zu6oz Still dung. And it's often in pieces on the underside of the mushroom that can't be easily wiped off. I'm still washing mine.

Button mushrooms already have a lot of water in them; simply rinsing them quickly doesn't matter much. I always prefer to rinse the mushrooms as it's quite common for them to have dirt on them.
Oddly, I like mine steamed with a bit of garlic and butter.
Or in a soup... with tons of water...
I usually wash my mushrooms and dry them a bit with paper towel before cooking. That way I am sure i am eating them clean.

"don't wash your mushrooms because they soak up water"
"Don't salt your mushrooms right away because it draws out the water"
"You want to add salt when the liquid is cooked out"
WHAT?!?!?
I don't know if with mushroom you are referring to any fungi or not. Fungi are so diverse that you need to know how they are and how is its best way of cooking. It is difficult to generalize for all fungi (or mushroom). You can't do the same thing with oyster mushrooms and with porcini, for example.
Rinsing mushroom never had a problem becoming soggy. I don’t use oil to evaporate water before adding oil butter mix.
I've never washed a mushroom. I peel them. However I love soggy mushrooms and cook them slowly on low in butter. Yum. Just cook them how you like them :D
Buy mushrooms that have closed gills, they will store longer and yes add sea salt when sautéing them to draw out the moisture
How can you tell if they have "closed gills"? They're mushrooms (a veggie), Not Fish...
I agree with you about the salt. In fact, I *add* water (or stock or wine) to the pan when I start them along with salt and a few seasonings. The salt and water help to flavor the mushrooms throughout and the salt water helps to draw out the mushrooms' water, which I then boil off before caramelizing the mushrooms.
Wrong! Salt after you've browned them. Ask Rachael Ray
Y'all must not of listened to the video either
@@timmytim6427
Rachael Ray is far from being a cook God.
As stated in previous comments. Washing just prior to cooking and patting dry is fine.
A good trick to speed up saute is to nuke them first for 30 seconds or so. But save the juices to add back to recipe , once you've achieved texture you desire.
Great tips!
Thankyou
"Wipe the mushrooms off with a damp towel." Yeah, try that, then rinse the mushrooms with a sprayer and see all the black soil and fertilizer that washes out of crevices. YUCK!
Those are called spores😭
how you cook mushrooms is entirely dependent on what sort of dish you are making.
Sound information indeed! Especially removing plastic form Supermarket mushrooms - it kills them! They are humble things - treat with respect!
Sadly the supermarkets I go to only provide plastic bags for vegetables, including mushrooms. Not many supply paper bags for them anymore.
