Mushrooms Punnet

Are they good for me?

Mushrooms are high in many of the B-group vitamins and contain biotin, folate and some dietary fibre.

Buying & storing

Look for firm, dry mushrooms. Store in the fridge, in paper or cloth bags to prevent sweating, for up to five days.

Preparation

Simply wipe mushrooms with a damp paper towel or remove dirt with a pastry brush. Mushrooms absorb water, so don’t wash them.

Cooking tips

• Add sliced mushrooms to Asian-style soups and cook until tender.
• Stir-fry mushrooms with garlic and butter. Spoon onto toast and drizzle over balsamic vinegar to serve.
