Preserved mushrooms are most afraid of getting wet, and mushrooms in the refrigerator are easy to get wet and become sticky. However, keeping mushrooms in hard paper bags can solve the problem of mushroom deterioration well. Mushrooms packed in plastic bags can easily lead to moisture loss, which in turn accelerates mushroom mildew.

Selection method
1, look at the shape
Choose mushrooms with relatively complete shapes, and it is best not to choose those with deformities.
2. Look at the size
The bigger the mushroom, the better. Some particularly big mushrooms are promoted by hormones, which will have adverse effects on people's body if they are eaten frequently, while small or moderately small mushrooms are more fresh and tender, and too big mushrooms are likely to have a hard taste due to fibrosis.
3. Knead by hand
Because of the strong water absorption of mushrooms, vendors will spray a lot of water or soak mushrooms in order to increase their weight. Pinch or squeeze with your hands, and you will find that if you pinch with your hands, it will drip or the mushroom cap will be fragile, which means that there is too much water. At the same time, after soaking in water, the storage period is shorter, the flavor is worse, and it is very easy to be polluted or spoiled.
4. Touch by hand
Mushrooms should not be sticky to the touch. Generally speaking, fresh mushrooms are cooler than dry ones, and feel moist, but they must not be sticky.
