Here are some commonly asked questions
How to store roasted mushrooms
Roasted mushrooms can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. The best way to store them is in an airtight container.
Can you freeze roasted mushrooms?
To freeze mushrooms put mushrooms in an airtight container or freezer bag. Put mushrooms in the freezer for 6 months to 1 year. Unfortunately, the mushrooms will go bad if you do not use them within that time frame.
HOW DO YOU CLEAN MUSHROOMS?
Mushrooms should be wiped with a damp paper towel before slicing and preparing. Do not wash them underwater because they are porous.
How to pick fresh mushrooms at the store?
Look for mushrooms that are plump and have a fresh look. Avoid mushrooms that have any bruises, cuts or black spots on mushrooms.

How to Cook Mushrooms
- Preheat the oven to 425F.
- Use a damp towel or sponge or rub any dirt off the outside of the mushrooms.
- Place the mushrooms on a large baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle over the garlic, thyme, salt and pepper and toss to combine.
- Roast the mushrooms for 8-10 minutes, or until they are just tender. Serve with a garnish of fresh herbs and enjoy.
- Store any leftover mushrooms in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
Can these roasted mushrooms be made in the air fryer?
Yes – you can make these mushrooms in the air fryer. You might need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
To make – place the prepared mushrooms in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook at 400 for 5 minutes, turn the mushrooms over, and then cook another 5 minutes or until fork-tender. If they start to brown too much, you can tent the top with foil to keep them cooking evenly.

ARE MUSHROOMS GOOD FOR YOU?
Yes, mushrooms are good for you. They contain protein and some mushrooms also have iron, Vitamin A or Vitamin B-6.
Mushrooms are available all year but they are more plentiful in the fall. Mushrooms go bad very quickly so it is important to store mushrooms properly once mushrooms are bought fresh from a grocery store.
Notes for Roasting Mushrooms
- This recipe calls for cremini or button mushrooms but shitake or king oyster would also work! If using portobello, I recommend slicing them into ½” slices.
- I’m using olive oil but feel free to use your favorite neutral cooking oil.
- Fresh garlic and thyme are my seasonings of choice but feel free to swap out your favorite herbs– rosemary and sage would also be delicious!
- Salt and pepper are key to delicious mushrooms! Don’t forget to season them
What’s The Difference Between Roasted Mushrooms And Baked Mushrooms?
The words roasted and bake are often interchangeable – but the definitions, while similar, are a bit different. Roasted mushrooms are mushrooms that have been cooked in an oven at a higher temperature for a shorter time. Baked mushrooms are mushrooms that have been cooked in the oven at a lower temperature and for a longer period of time.
