How To Clean Mushrooms
I always get emails from my readers on how to clean mushrooms. In the recipe section below, you will find the picture guide on how to clean mushrooms. Basically, you don’t have to rinse and wash mushrooms with water.
Mushrooms are pretty clean. You can use paper towels or a small kitchen towel to clean the mushrooms. Splash a tiny bit of water on a paper towel or kitchen towel to make it damp.
Wipe the surface and the stems of the mushrooms to remove any dirt that might cling onto the mushrooms.
After wiping off the mushrooms, just cut off the bottom part of the stem, and the mushrooms are ready for cooking.
How To Saute Mushrooms
Garlic butter mushroom is an easy sauteed mushroom recipe. It calls for only a few basic ingredients: butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt and ground black pepper. The secret ingredient is chicken broth; it adds lots of flavors to this dish. You can also use a compound butter instead of just regular butter, such as my garlic herb butter, for an extra burst of flavor!
Using a skillet, heat the butter until it melts, then saute the minced garlic and add the mushrooms. Cover the skillet using its lid to cook the mushrooms to make sure that they are moist.
