Excess Moisture

One of the biggest issues you’ll have to deal with when preparing mushrooms is the water they release along the way. You can try avoiding this problem by gently scrubbing your mushroom instead of washing them, and roasting them before putting the stuffing in to give the water enough time to evaporate.

Don’t Ditch Stems

Many people tend to throw away their mushroom stems after removing them, but that’s a huge waste. They can be pretty tasty when used for the stuffing, so chop them up and mix them with all the other ingredients.

Right Variety

Mushrooms come in many shapes and forms, but you can’t just use any of them to make stuffed mushrooms. The stuffing won’t fit if your mushrooms are too small, and that’s why you should always go with large mushrooms with cupped shapes, such as cremini and white button mushrooms.
