Champignons are mushrooms that are available to everyone without exception.
Since this product does not necessarily need to be boiled, unlike wild mushrooms, many people wonder whether champignons can be eaten without cooking.
Culinary expert of HERE NEWS, chef and fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova is ready to help you dot the i's and cross the t's in this matter.
Can you eat raw champignons?
In fact, champignons are the mushrooms that are allowed to be eaten uncooked.
However, there are some caveats: only absolutely healthy people should do this. In addition, you need to make sure that the products you buy are of proper quality, i.e. you are sure that the mushrooms were grown without the use of harmful substances.
Before eating, mushrooms must be thoroughly washed under running water, cut into pieces and sprinkled with lemon juice or balsamic vinegar.
Please note that these products contain plant fibers, which without heat treatment can irritate the gastrointestinal tract.
