Champignons are a favorite mushroom among many housewives, as they can always be found in stock and used to prepare delicious food.

However, the issue of cleaning mushrooms remains controversial and complex.

Some people act in a standard way: they wash the mushrooms and then clean them with a knife. This is not a good idea, warns Yulia Arkhipova, an expert on culinary issues at the BelNovosti online publication. The champignons will quickly absorb moisture, which will prevent them from being cooked properly.

How can flour help in this matter?

As it turns out, flour is a great way to clean mushrooms. With its help, you can achieve impressive results while preserving the quality of the champignons.

You will need to proceed as follows.

Afterwards, we treat the mushrooms with a napkin or paper towel and clean them with a knife if necessary.
