Tips
- For easier cleaning, gently wipe mushrooms with a damp paper towel instead of washing them. Avoid soaking them, as they can absorb too much water.
- You can make the filling ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Stuff the mushrooms just before baking for the best texture.
