Mushrooms often arrive on the shelves with a bit of muddy residue from the fields, and while it’s nice to be reminded of where they’ve come from, it’s also really tempting to just stick them under the tap to clean them. But woah there – don’t soak those ‘shrooms!

By washing mushrooms under the tap, you’ll damage their texture or, even worse, risk losing their delicious flavour. To keep them at their best, you should gently brush them clean. The problem is, mushrooms are sensitive souls, and most cleaning brushes are too tough for their delicate skins.

Fortunately, there’s a handy solution for this very issue. KitchenCraft’s mush brush! Shaped like a cute little button mushroom, this cleaning brush has soft nylon bristles to gently rub away soil, and a comfortable rubber wood handle so you can keep a grip on things while you prep. Oh yes, it is just as adorable as it sounds… and even more useful!
