Prep
Remove stems from cremini or white button mushrooms. Wipe caps clean with a damp cloth. Finely chop the stems and sauté them with garlic, onion, and herbs — they form part of the filling. Pat the caps dry before filling.
Filling Ideas
Classic combinations: cream cheese with herbs and parmesan; Italian sausage and mozzarella; crab and cream cheese; spinach, feta, and sun-dried tomatoes. Pack filling generously — it shrinks slightly as the mushroom cooks and releases moisture.
