What's the best way to store mushrooms?

Answer 1

store them in a paper sack in the fridge.

Answer 2

Raw or cooked, mushreooms are fragile and deteriorate quickly. Handle them with care and refrigerate them as soon as possible. Store fresh mushrooms unwashed in a non-airtight container, preferably a paper bag, to allow them to breathe. At the very least, poke holes in the plastic packaging, as poor air circulation promotes rotting and the growth of Clostridium botulinum, a bacterium naturally found in soil, which proliferates in damp oxygen-poor envieonments and can cause serious food poisoning ( botulism). Mushrooms keep for about a week in the refrigerator. They freeze well; simple slice them and place them carefully in a freezer bag. Blanching makes them tough and is unneccessary if you intend to freeze them for less than 3 months. If you plan to freeze mushrooms for a longer period, sprinkle them with lemon juice diluted with water and then blanch them for 2 .5 minutes. Use them unthawed. You can also dry mushrooms; they lose up to 90% of their initial volume and keep for up to a year.
