Crimini mushrooms (aka baby bellas, Roman mushrooms, cremino mushrooms, brown mushrooms) are a fairly mild and very adaptable mushroom variety. When fresh, their taste and texture are similar to button mushrooms, but a little bit firmer and a little bit stronger flavored.
Criminis' more mild flavor also makes them a great choice for people who are just starting to appreciate mushrooms for the first time and aren’t ready to try more potent varieties like shitakes, morels and porcinis.Crimini mushrooms are a rare vegetable source of natural Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA), a substance that studies suggest may have anti-cancer abilities in addition to other health benefits.
Dried criminis are easy to store until you need them, ensuring you always have mushrooms at hand. They’re easy to reconstitute and a variety that won’t overpower other ingredients. Dried mushrooms are a great value. It takes about 5 pounds of fresh mushrooms to create 8 ounces of dried mushrooms. They can be shipped more affordably and last a year or longer in your pantry.
Shelf Life: Dried mushrooms will retain their flavor for at least a year, but likely far longer.
Use them in soups, on pizzas, in stews or salads. Sauté them with butter and garlic for use as a side dish, pizza topping. Finely mince them and cook them with butter, white wine and cream to make duxelles, a great stuffing for fish roulades, meat, or addition to beef wellington (how to make duxelles).
