To store white button mushrooms and maintain their freshness, keep them in the refrigerator in their original packaging or a paper bag. Avoid storing them in airtight plastic bags, as this can trap moisture and cause them to spoil quickly. They should be used within 5-7 days for the best quality. Do not wash before storing; instead, clean them just before use.
