Champignons are the most popular mushrooms that are included in human nutrition. This is explained by the simplicity of cultivation, prevalence, availability, amazing taste and immense possibilities in the culinary business. They go well with all kinds of vegetables, herbs, dairy products, spices, herbs and roots. They can be used both as ingredients and as an independent dish. But I will separately note the stuffed mushrooms baked in the oven.
This dish can be either a cold appetizer or a second hot dish. Serving them is appropriate for the festive table and everyday menu. And the simplicity of implementation will allow you to feast on this dish quite often. But this appetizer, like many other dishes, has its own cooking secrets.
- Mushrooms of the same size and with large caps make the dish more nourishing and more beautiful.
- Mushroom caps are baked: pre-boiled, fried, pickled or raw. It depends on the suggested recipe.
- Since the mushrooms are quite tender, you cannot overexpose them in the oven. Otherwise, they will lose their nutritional value and shape. Typically, the average cooking time for caps is 30 minutes.

Cooking mushrooms stuffed with nuts and cheese
1. Grate the cheese on a medium grater. I do not recommend using a coarse grater. the cheese will be large chunks that may not melt completely. Any type of cheese can be used, even processed cheese. But in this case, it is better to pre-soak it for about half an hour in the freezer, so that it is easier to rub.
2. Peel the walnuts, prick in a dry frying pan if desired, add any pieces and add to the cheese filling.
3. Wash the champignons, dry them and cut off the legs. They can usually be removed very easily without the use of kitchen utensils. Cut the removed legs into small cubes and place in a bowl with the filling.
4. Stir the filling well to distribute the food evenly.
5. Line a baking sheet with parchment for baking and place the mushroom caps, season with salt and, if desired, ground pepper. I recommend choosing a large mushroom so that the caps are large. Then more filling will fit in them.
6. Fill the mushrooms with the filling.
7. Send them to bake in an oven heated to 180 ° C for half an hour. Do not overdo them for longer, otherwise the mushrooms will become dry and lose their shape.
8. Put the finished appetizer on a serving dish and serve. You can eat the food both warm and chilled.
