Pro Tips and Substitutions

How to Clean Mushrooms. Cleaning mushrooms is simple and easy. Gently wipe them with a damp paper towel or soft-bristled brush to remove any dirt or debris. Avoid soaking in water as they can absorb moisture and become soggy, which can affect their texture and flavor during cooking.
Mushrooms Prep Tips. Do your best to pick a package of mushrooms that are consistent in size. Also, make sure to chop the filling components in even pieces for easier mushroom stuffing and to ensure each bite has a little bit of everything!
Cheese Alternatives. If you don’t have Boursin, cream cheese mixed with herbs or another flavored cheese can work as a substitute.
Breadcrumb Choices: Use regular bread crumbs or gluten-free panko for a nutty crunch.
Herb Boost. Add chopped fresh thyme or chives for extra freshness.
Spice It Up. Mix in red pepper flakes or a dash of smoked paprika for added flavor.

Serving and Storage

Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer at 350°F for 10-15 minutes until heated through. Freezing isn’t ideal as it compromises the texture.
