When Shopping: Look for creamy white to light brown caps that are tightly  
closed around the stems. If the caps have started to open and show the  
underside, or "gills," the mushrooms may not be fresh. To store, do not  
wash. Wrap in damp paper towels and refrigerate in a plastic bag up to 4  
days.  
Preparing for Cooking: Rinse mushrooms with cool water, but do not soak  
them because they will absorb water and become mushy. Dry thoroughly. Do  
not peel.  
Cut off and discard the end of each stem. Cut each mushroom lengthwise  
into 1/4-inch slices.  
Sautéing: Heat 2 tablespoons margarine or butter in a large skillet (about  
1
0-inch size) over medium-high heat 1 to 2 minutes or until margarine  
begins to bubble. Add 1/2 pound mushroom slices (about 3 cups). Cook 6 to  
minutes, lifting and stirring constantly with a turner or large spoon,  
8
until tender when pierced with a fork. If using a nonstick pan, you can  
use just 1 tablespoon margarine.  
Steaming: Place a steamer basket in 1/2 inch of water in a skillet or  
saucepan. The water should not touch the bottom of the basket. Place  
mushroom slices in basket. Cover tightly and heat to boiling over high  
heat. Once water is boiling, reduce heat to low. Steam covered 6 to 8  
minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork.  
Microwaving: Place mushroom slices and 1/4 cup water in a 1 1/2-quart  
microwavable casserole. Cover with plastic wrap, folding back 2-inch edge  
to vent. Microwave on High 5 to 7 minutes or until tender when pierced  
with a fork; drain in a strainer.
