Scientists Reveal The Healthiest Way to Cook Mushrooms, And It’s Surprising

Don Patrick January 3, 2022

Researchers have revealed the best way to cook mushrooms – and it defies every cookbook on the market.

According to scientists from the Mushroom Technological Research Center of La Rioja in Spain, mushrooms’ composition, antioxidant capacity and nutritional content can be negatively affected by the cooking process.

For the study, the team chose the four most popular mushroom species and evaluated the influence of boiling, microwaving, grilling, and frying white button, shiitake, oyster, and king oyster mushrooms. The samples were freeze-dried and analyzed, with the results compared to raw versions.

The researchers found that the best way to cook mushrooms while still preserving their nutritional properties is to grill or microwave them, as the fried and boiled mushrooms showed significantly less antioxidant activity. The fried mushrooms, in particular, revealed a severe loss of protein and carbohydrate content, but an increase in fat.

“Frying and boiling treatments produced more severe losses in proteins and antioxidants compounds, probably due to the leaching of soluble substances in the water or in the oil, which may significantly influence the nutritional value of the final product,” said Irene Roncero, one of the study’s authors, in a statement.

Mushrooms are healthy because of the significant amount of dietary fiber, protein, amino acids, vitamins (including B1, B2, B12, C, D, and E), and trace minerals that they contain, as well as the fact that they’re low in fat and calories.
