Mushrooms with onions - useful tips and tricks
• After defrosting, a lot of moisture comes out of the mushrooms. If mushrooms are also bought in a store, then there is even more water. The mass of the product can be reduced by 40 or even 50%. This must be taken into account immediately and initially take more product.
• If you need to fry the mushrooms until crisp, then use the breading. You can also dip the pieces in the egg and alternately fry in oil on both sides.
• If you salt the mushrooms at the very beginning of cooking, they will release a lot of moisture.
• To prevent mushrooms from darkening during cooking, add a few crystals of citric acid or a little vinegar to the water. But it’s important not to overdo it, otherwise the cooking time will be delayed.
• If you need to peel a lot of onions, then you can pre-pour it with cold water. The husk after soaking will be easily removed.
• To avoid crying when peeling or slicing onions, you need to draw cold water into your mouth and hold it during the process. Periodically, the fluid is changed fresh.
