Cleaning Mushrooms
Mushrooms soak up water like a sponge, then release it later while
cooking, which can change the consistency of recipes. "Dry clean"
mushrooms with a mushroom brush. You can find one with soft bristles at
most kitchen stores. Lightly moisten the brush (or a rag) with water,
and gently wipe the mushrooms.
-Remove meat and vegetables from skewers and serve in pita bread with
garlic sauce
