Your No-Fail Guide to Mushrooms
From the grocery aisle to the skillet, we’ve got the tips to up your mushroom game.
How to Select
Pick mushrooms that are firm, smooth and plump. Want mild flavor? Go for a closed veil. Craving something richer? Look for exposed gills.
How to Store
Keep mushrooms in their original package or a paper bag in the fridge for up to a week and only freeze them after sautéing.
How to Sauté
Sauté mushrooms in a hot, lightly oiled pan in a single layer, browning each side once before seasoning. Once both sides are golden, season and serve.
Flavor Made Easy
Easily turn everyday meals into flavorful, delicious masterpieces.
Mushrooms on the Mind
See why mushrooms aren’t just tasty, they might help power your brain too.
Mushrooms are one of the top food sources of ERGO.
Mushrooms and the MIND Diet
The MIND Diet is a plant-forward eating pattern designed to support brain health. Mushrooms provide ergothioneine, a nutrient that may help protect against chronic age-related diseases, including cognitive decline.1
Get to Know ERGO
Ergothioneine, or ERGO, is an amino acid that is being examined for its role in brain health. Lower blood levels of ergothioneine may be associated with the severity of cognitive disease.2
Eat Smarter with Mushrooms
Emerging evidence suggests mushrooms might do more than flavor your meals — they may also support your brain health with age.
A Look at the Evidence
In a study of over 600 older adults in Singapore, researchers found that higher mushroom consumption was associated with a substantially lower likelihood of having mild cognitive impairment.3
