(Agaricus)
(Agaricus bisporus)

DESCRIPTION / FLAVOR:

Varies in color from creamy white to light brown and in sizes from 3/4" to 3" in diameter Pleasingly mild and woodsy; flavor intensifies when cooked. In the US Whites are commonly harvested before they mature so the veils do not open underneath the cap. These mushrooms have a more delicate flavor then the mature mushrooms. When the mushroom matures the veil will open or separate under the cap. Mature Whites, with open veils and darkened caps, develop a richer, deeper taste.

SHELF LIFE:

Under ideal conditions and proper handling white mushrooms can remain usable for approximately 7 to 9 days. Keep refrigerated in paper bags or original packaging.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS:
