Answers:
Do not let the mushrooms soak in water or be in too much water!. Just a very quick, light rinse and a rub should clean them!.

There are several ways to cook them and it also depends what type of mushrooms you have!.

You could slice them and saute them in some oil/butter!.
You could pull the stems off and stuff them with some kind of filling
You could eat them raw
You can put them on sticks and make kabobs on the bbq
If you have a large portebello, you can grill it or fry it whole and use it as a sandwich filling (like a mushroom burger)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Basic Preparation:

There is no need to peel mushrooms!. The only trimming they may need is the stem end, if it's dry, or the tough stem portion of Shiitakes or the root of the Portabella!. All other mushroom stems may be prepared along with the caps!.

Mushrooms can be sliced thick or thin, cut in quarters, coarsely or finely chopped using a sharp knife!. For slicing or chopping large quantities, use a food processor with the slicing or wing blade attachment!.

If a recipe calls for just caps, twist stems loose or separate them from the caps with the tip of a knife!.



Sautéing:

For each eight ounces of mushrooms, melt one tablespoon butter or heat one tablespoon of oil in a large skillet!. Add mushrooms!. Cook and stir until golden and the released juices have evaporated, about five minutes!. Don't overcrowd the skillet or the mushrooms will steam rather than brown!.

Microwaving:

Mushrooms cook extremely well in the microwave!. Simply clean and cook as follows: Put eight ounces thickly sliced mushrooms in a microwaveable bowl (no oil or butter needed); cover and cook on HIGH (100% power) for two to three minutes stirring once!.

Roasting:

Place mushrooms in a shallow baking pan, Toss with a little oil and roast in a 450oF oven, stirring occasionally until brown, about 20 minutes!. Use about one tablespoon of oil for each eight ounces of mushrooms!.

Grilling or Broiling:

This is the preferred method for larger capped mushrooms like Portabellas and Shiitakes!. Lightly brush caps and stems with oil to keep them moist, and season with salt and pepper!. Grill or broil 4 to 6 inches from heat source for 4 to 6 minutes on each side, brushing again once or twice!.

Seasoning:

Mushrooms are very similar to meats and other vegetables!. Virtually any and all seasonings go well with mushrooms!. If serving as a side dish, use seasonings compatible with the main dish!.

Clean mushrooms (cut into slices or chunks!. You can leave small mushrooms whole!.
To clean mushrooms without soaking, wipe them with a clean, damp towel or special mushroom brush!. Be sure to wipe the stems, too, if you will be using them!.
Otherwise, put the mushrooms in a bowl of water!.
Swish the mushrooms around until the dirt comes off!.
Rinse in fresh water!.
Dry the mushrooms well with a towel or paper towel

Mix different kind of mushrooms if you like!.



Sauté mushrooms over high heat with butter, olive oil or a mixture of the two!. As the mushrooms begin to cook, they will express liquid; continue to cook until the liquid is gone and the mushrooms are tender and golden!. Add a few tablespoons of sherry or red wine, let the liquid reduce for a second, and toss with chopped herbs, such as parsley, scallion or rosemary, along with salt and pepper!.



Alternatively, roast mushrooms, tossed with a little olive oil, salt and pepper, and perhaps garlic, in a 400-degree oven for 30 minutes or until golden and tender!.
