When pickling mushrooms, mold appeared. How to properly store milk mushrooms after pickling
To keep salted milk mushrooms longer and not spoil, you should follow a few simple recommendations.
Take care of cleanliness
To pickle mushrooms, you can use various containers: barrels, tubs, enamel buckets and pans. Glass jars also work well for milk mushrooms. The container that you are going to use for storing mushrooms must be thoroughly washed, scalded with boiling water and dried. The jars also need to be sterilized.
Choose a cool and dry storage location
- A refrigerator is perfect for this in an apartment. You can put jars of mushrooms in the compartment for fresh vegetables and fruits, where they will have the most optimal conditions.
- It is possible to place containers with milk mushrooms on the balcony. But first they need to be packed in boxes insulated with old blankets or sawdust. Mushrooms should not be allowed to freeze.
- Large batches of milk mushrooms are placed in the cellar or basement.
Maintain optimal temperature conditions
The air temperature in the place where milk mushrooms are stored should not exceed + 6 °C, but also not fall below 0 °C. In the heat, salted mushrooms can sour and spoil. In the cold they will freeze, become brittle and tasteless.
Don't let the brine stagnate
It is advisable to shake the container with salted milk mushrooms or transfer them weekly.
Remove mold in a timely manner
It is usually removed using a slotted spoon. If mold reappears or there is a large amount of it, proceed as follows: the entire brine is drained, and the mushrooms are washed in boiled but cooled water. Then the milk mushrooms are put back into the prepared clean container and filled with new brine, after having cooled it.
The nuances of storing milk mushrooms salted cold or hot
Depending on the salting method, not only the taste of salted mushrooms differs, but also the methods of storing the preparations.
Hot way
This method is used to pickle boiled milk mushrooms. After salting, they are distributed into glass jars, which are sealed with metal or polyethylene lids. Salted milk mushrooms will keep well in the refrigerator. After a week you can try the mushrooms, but it is better to wait 1.5 months, then they will be well salted and fully reveal their taste.
Cold way
Designed for pickling raw mushrooms. Milk mushrooms salted using this method become ready for consumption only after 1-2 months. The storage method depends on what kind of dishes you choose.
In this case, the temperature regime must be maintained from 0 to +3 °C. It is better to store mushrooms in barrels and other large containers in the cellar.
In this case, be sure to ensure that the milk mushrooms are always in the brine, but at the same time do not float to the top.
Mushrooms can also be placed in a glass jar, placing a cabbage leaf on top and closing with a plastic lid. Store this container in the refrigerator.
Shelf life of salted milk mushrooms
It is not recommended to keep containers with mushrooms for longer than six months. Also note that mushrooms are stored in the refrigerator for less time than in the cellar. It is advisable to consume cooked mushrooms within 1-3 months after pickling.

Before serving milk mushrooms, choose a recipe for their preparation.
