Preparing mushrooms for cooking

Before frying butter, you need to pay due attention to the preparation of products. First of all, you need to make sure that the mushroom is edible. If it is damaged, or there are clear signs that worms have eaten it, it is best to put the mushroom aside. For a dish, specimens that are several days old will be ideal. They are small in size, with even brown caps and tight legs, without any symptoms of being eaten by beetles. Such mushrooms are not only the most delicious, but also look beautiful on a plate.

Before cooking, the mushrooms must be cleaned. Some people think that removing the remnants of soil, leaves and dirt will be enough, but this is not the case. There is transparent mucus on the caps of butter, which should be removed, otherwise it will ruin the dish. You need to peel the mushrooms up to a brown cap. Freeing butter from mucus is not so easy for an inexperienced mushroom picker. But there are a few secrets to help make the process easier.

Simple Cleaning Secrets:

  • mushrooms are first cleaned, then washed;
  • the hat must be rubbed with salt;
  • the knife should be small and sharp.

Best of all, boletus is cleaned immediately after they are cut. Because of this, the collection process can be delayed. Most often, mushroom pickers prefer to do this after returning home. After the butter has been in the basket for several hours, it will be more difficult to remove the mucus, but if you rub the caps with salt, it will come off easier. Only after the oil has been removed from the film can they be washed. It is good if you scald the butter with boiling water before frying.

Many housewives prefer not to use the mushroom legs for fried dishes, they leave them for soups or sauces. But beautiful hats look great in a pan. To preserve the integrity and elasticity of the mushrooms, you need to pour them only into a hot frying pan, and you should not immediately add oil. You need to let them fry dry for about twenty minutes, and only then add vegetable or animal fat.

Before frying butter, many cooks prefer to boil them. This is correct, because you can immediately send mushrooms to the pan only if there is no doubt about the quality of the product.

It is an indicator, because if the mushroom is poisoned, then the bulb becomes dark in color.
