week in the refrigerator, freezing save them for a much longer period of time. Frozen mushrooms are
carefully trimmed and thoroughly cleaned, then sliced before freezing.
Freezing process locks in the delicate characteristics of the freshly harvested mushroom with virtually
no loss in flavor, aroma, color, texture or nutritional value. A rapid freezing rate is essential. One
processor aims for a center temperature of -10oC (-23oC) to be reached in 3-5 minutes in diced or in
20 minutes in whole mushrooms.
Mushrooms have been successfully frozen on a semi-fluidized belt. Both liquid nitrogen and
powdered dry ice have also been successfully used to freeze mushrooms rapidly. Browning of un-
blanched mushrooms during frozen storage can also be controlled by the Penn State wash process
without the use of sulfites.
