Mushrooms
Mushrooms are a very good source of a wide range of minerals and vitamins. Crimini mushrooms have higher levels of vitamins and minerals than the common white mushroom. One serving of sliced crimini mushrooms has 21% and 27% of Riboflavin and Selenium, respectively. Mushrooms are considered a very good source of Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Pantothenic Acid, Phosphorus, Potassium, Zinc, Copper, Manganese and Selenium.
crimini mushrooms, portabella mushrooms
Keep in a loosely closed paper bag in the refrigerator. Cooked mushrooms can be frozen- just sauté them in oil or butter for a few minutes and then place in a container.
Clean mushrooms using as little water as possible as they absorb water. Most edible mushrooms can be eaten cooked or raw, though Shiitake mushrooms are best cooked. The stems are edible though you may want to remove parts if they are too woody.
Portabella mushrooms are excellent grilled. Simply brush olive oil on both sides and then grill for about 5 minutes per side.
