These were left in paper towels stacked. Like 20 stacks of them inbetween paper towels.

They were all on top of eachother and the moisture made them black overnight.

They were moved to new paper towels and dried the day after and now they are cracker dry but are they worth keeping?

Is the damage already done?

Are we cooked chat?

Rip 300 lib er tees?

Thanks

I know a dehydrator is the best job, and I've ordered one but it'll be a few weeks before it's here. I have two rounds of mushrooms that I've been drying, on cardboard with a fan over them. For the first lot it's been two weeks. But they're still not crispy, the stems bend.

My house isn't the warmest and I don't have a hot press. I have an air fryer, a hairdryer with a diffuser and an oven. Are any of these any good or should I just leave them out and wait for the dehydrator? Or is that too long to leave them out and I should put them in the jar?

Update: Air fryer on dehydrate worked perfectly, they're snapping in two now. I'm cancelling the dehydrator. Thank you everyone!

Is that a possible close of the season already?
