How to Preserve: If you find that you will not be able to use all of your fresh mushrooms before they go bad, here are a few options:
• If you dry them, they will last for years and retain an intensified form of their intrinsic flavor and vital properties. Simply dehydrate your left over mushrooms at under 140 degrees, in an oven (or a dehydrator if you have one.) The cooking time varies with the amount of moisture the mushroom has. Keep an eye on the oven-dried shrooms until they are moisture-free. Many chefs will dry leftover mushrooms and keep them for soup stock, to use months down the road.
• Individually freezing is another method. Place the individual mushrooms on a cookie sheet making sure they aren’t touching, they will freeze retaining their original shape, often times people will freeze them in one bag all together and they will end up with a chunk that is not very cook friendly.
• You can also par-sauté fresh mushrooms in oil and then freeze them.
• Lastly there is canning mushrooms in oil. Cook down mushrooms in oil and place inside a mason jar, the heat should seal the jar. Keep refrigerated for up to two months!
