Storage

– Store immediately in the coldest part of the walk-in cooler. Kitchen heat will cause rapid deterioration of quality.

– Do not store in plastic bags.

– Keep mushrooms away from products with strong odors or ethylene-producing fruit.

– Keep mushrooms and their containers dry during storage.

Handling

– Follow good rotation practices, first shipments received should be used first.
