Mushrooms breathe better in paper, which prevents moisture buildup.
Washing mushrooms adds moisture, which speeds up spoilage. Keep them dry until you're ready to use them.
Mushrooms like it cool but not too humid. Store them in the main fridge area.
Whole mushrooms last longer than sliced. Slice them only when you're ready to cook.
When using dried mushrooms, soak them in warm water for 20-30 minutes before cooking.
Opt for containers with ventilation holes or make your own with a perforated lid.
Give your mushrooms some space in storage to allow air circulation and prevent bruising.
