FAQ (Questions and Answers)
How to make crispy parmesan mushrooms?
To achieve the perfect crust, arrange the mushrooms in a single layer on the tray and season them with breadcrumbs, parmesan, and a drizzle of oil. Bake them in a static oven at 356°F (180°C) for about 20 minutes, until they become golden and slightly crispy on the surface.
Can I use other types of mushrooms?
Yes, you can replace or mix champignon and Pleurotus with porcini, pioppini, or mixed mushrooms. The important thing is that they are well cleaned and dry, so as not to release too much water during cooking.
How to store parmesan mushrooms?
Once cooked, you can store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 1-2 days. When serving them, heat them in the oven or air fryer for a few minutes to regain the crispiness.
What to serve with parmesan mushrooms in autumn?
Parmesan mushrooms are perfect alongside roast meat mains, cutlets, or meatballs. In autumn, you can also serve them with fried eggs, mashed potatoes, or soft polenta: their savory taste and crispy coating pair beautifully with the warm and comforting dishes of the season.
