How do I store fresh mushrooms?
Please refrigerate your fresh mushrooms immediately upon receiving them (whether they are morels, chanterelles, black trumpet mushrooms or any other wild or cultivated fresh mushrooms). You can also store them in a plastic strainer covered with a dry hand towel. Do not store them in plastic bags or a closed container. They need air circulation, or they will start to go bad. Use them within 5 days. Check them twice a day to make sure there are no bad mushrooms, if any are getting slimy or smell bad, or are turning white, throw them away immediately, or they will ruin your other mushrooms. When in doubt, throw it out. If you eat moldy mushrooms, they will make you sick. Matsutake can be covered with a slightly moist towel to keep the veil from breaking. The Hen of the Woods, Brown Beech and White Beech mushrooms come in a cello pack, do not open them until you are ready to use them. They will last two weeks in their cello bags.

- How do I handle Truffles? Here is the link on where we found this information
- Each day, replace the paper towel with a fresh towel and dry the condensation from the container.
- When truffles become soft, they must be consumed immediately.
- Truffles can be frozen as well; commercial ventures do this, but care must be taken to avoid the collection of moisture on the truffle due to condensation.
- If you cannot consume your whole truffle before it gets oily, another way to preserve them is to make a truffle butter.
Black truffles release more aroma when heated (not cooked), so are generally added at the end to sauces and risottos, stuffed into roulades and foie gras terrines, cooked with eggs, lamb, sweetbreads, seafoods, poultry, the creativity extends even to black truffle ice cream (a specialty of THE NIBBLE’s Wine Editor, Kris Prasad). The famous truffle dish Tournedos Rossini, created for the great opera composer who frequented the top restaurants in Paris, combined beef medallions, foie gras, and black truffles with Madeira. (It’s often made with wild mushrooms to make it affordable at fine restaurants year-round. Heat destroys the flavor of white truffles: They are generally grated raw over pasta, eggs, and other dishes.
