microwave all the way - space-time - 05-22-2017
The healthiest way to cook mushrooms is to microwave or grill them to preserve their goodness, researchers say.
These cooking methods significantly increase levels of antioxidants which protect cells against diseases, but boiling or frying reduces them.

But that's a British source, and their food routinely sucks, so for 'shrooms, please find an Italian source.
Thank you.

Wrong on both counts:
1. The study was a spanish study "Mushroom Technological Research Center of La Rioja,"
2. British food may have sucked 20+ years ago, but today it is light years better, and generally better than most american food, both nutrition-wise and taste-wise.
Also, I am not going to pay any attention to this study because I eat mushrooms for the flavor, not the nutrition.

antioxidants antishmoxidants
sautéed with a bunch of garlic is one of the yummiest flavors in the world

Deep fried mushrooms dipped in a blue cheese dip is quite awesome.

My wife watches a British baking show and I have to say it is astounding. I don't know about British food in general though.

That was my experience visiting the UK for my honeymoon in 2011. My Italian wife could not understand why I had given her warnings about UK food, since even the fast food at KFC and McDonald' tasted better than in the US.

My partner and I just finished season one tonight. Crazy good amateur bakers. Love the judges too.

I loved the first two seasons of GBBS. I got out of the routine of watching it at the times my current PBS station shows it, so I have missed season 3.
For the original topic, I think any cooking method that results in all the moisture being cooked out, will reduce the good stuff left in the mushrooms. I would like to see if the study included the sauce/residue after cooking because I have thought it contained most of the things that had been removed from the original food.
