About Fresh Mushroom
Fresh agaric mushrooms in general, with well-balanced protein and fibre, a pantry staple.
Health Benefits of Fresh Mushroom
'Fresh mushroom' spans several kinds
These generic fresh edible agarics carry ~2.7g protein and ~20 kcal per 100g, with almost no fat (0.1g) - a low-fat, low-calorie, higher-protein veggie. The term covers shimeji, brown beech and white angel mushrooms, all sharing high water (~90%) and steady low calories.
Washing and storage
Their porous surface absorbs water, so don't soak long - rinse quickly and drain, or wipe with a damp cloth. They don't store well: keep in a paper bag (not plastic) in the fridge and use within 2-3 days. Slime or a sour smell means spoilage. Hot fast cooking locks in more umami and texture than long simmering.
