Crimini
mushrooms are similar in appearance to the Whites because they
come from the same fam- ily (Agaricus). Look for a naturally light
tan to rich brown cap and a very ferm texture. Deeper, denser,
earthier flavor than White mushrooms.
Whole and sliced Criminis are gen- erally avail- able in 5 and
10-pound containers.
Impreesive in size and appearance, the Porta- bella mushroom is a
larger, h- ardier relative of the White and Crimini- s resulting in
a deep, meat-like texture and flavor.
Whole portabellas (caps with stems) are general- ly available in 5
-pound con- tainers. Portabella caps are available in 3-pound
containers. Sliced p- ortabellas are available 3-pound containers.
