• Poplar mushrooms are among the most appreciated edible mushrooms that can be found both spontaneously and marketed by cultivation. If grown they are sold already clean, if harvested they must be cleaned before preparation. First, brush them gently, then remove the final part of the stems and put them under cold running water to remove the earth and wood residues.
  • They are a low-calorie food, if not yet cleaned they last several days in the refrigerator and can be frozen or stored in oil
