Frequently Asked Questions

Are your mushrooms seasonal?
We harvest mushrooms 365 days a year. You can rely on fresh-picked harvest and can plan menus in advance.

What cooking techniques are best for mushrooms?
You can use almost any cooking method. Mushrooms respond to different cooking techniques much the same way that meats do. Poaching keeps flavors mild, high heat deepens them. Specialty mushrooms do not give up liquid as they cook – so they can easily be browned in a sauté pan. Many chefs like high-heat roasting to prepare large batches of mushrooms quickly. We recommend tossing with a little vegetable oil prior to roasting.

How should I store Gourmet Mushrooms?
When you receive your mushrooms they should be inspected and refrigerated. Mushrooms will last a little longer if kept as close as possible to 34 degrees. Leave the mushrooms sealed until you first use them. If you don’t use all the mushrooms at once, the remainder should be stored so they can breathe. Leaving the bag loosely open is one option, or place in a hotel pan and cover with a thick, clean, dry towel.

Can specialty specialty mushrooms be eaten raw?
When we wear our scientist hats, we think that raw mushrooms might be very hard to digest because part of the cell wall is made in part of chitin – the stuff in crab shells, but wearing our chef caps we know that people can and do eat raw mushrooms. Our suggestion would be, don’t overdo it.
