How to freeze butter mushrooms

Butter mushrooms are excellent forest mushrooms. Butterflies grow in the forest in whole families, so if you find a few butterflies, immediately take a good look at the nearby places, and you will see how much oil is around. Accordingly, you will come with a large catch of oil from the “quiet hunt”, and the question will immediately arise how to process them? ..

Try to process the butternuts within 3-4 hours after picking the mushrooms. You can dry, pickle or pickle them. Remember also a very convenient, affordable and easy way to harvest mushrooms for the winter - freezing.

Mushrooms can be frozen raw, boiled and fried. Raw mushrooms will take up a lot of space in the freezer, so use this method when you have plenty of free space in the freezer.

Boiled and fried butternuts, frozen in portions, will be able to diversify your menu in winter. You can always cook soup, scrambled eggs, pate, stuffing for pancakes or pies. And besides, in this form, they take up little space in the freezer.
