Notes
Serving stuffed mushrooms: there will be some liquid from the mushrooms in the bottom of the pan so remove to a new dish before serving
Mushrooms too hot? The mushrooms are surprisingly hot when they first come out of the oven. Leave them to cool for 5 minutes before serving to avoid burning your guests!
Taking stuffed mushrooms to a party? Stuffed mushrooms are just as tasty when served at room temperature so can be cooked an hour or so before and taken to a party. Remove stuffed mushrooms from the skillet to a serving dish.
Cream cheese not soft? If your cream cheese is straight from the fridge, heat in the microwave for 15-25 seconds to soften.
How to clean dirty mushrooms? Use a paper towel to gently wipe the pieces of dirt off the mushrooms
In a hurry? Use portobello mushrooms for the fastest cooking time
