Buy Cremini Spore online. The cremini mushroom, or brown mushroom, started out as a cross between the cultivated white mushroom and its wild cousin, Agaricus campestris. The result was a deeper colored mushroom that looks like a miniature portobello mushroom (hence the name), with a stronger flavor and firmer texture than the original button variety.
In fact, most grocery stores sell three color-coded types of button mushrooms: white, brown, and portobello. �� Cremini’s are moderately mature versions of their much younger white button cousins (hence the nickname “baby bella”), which means that they have a browner color, firmer texture, and more concentrated flavor. Don’t try to make substitutions for fresh creminis in recipes that call for whole baby bella; they’re only available in season. However, we frequently use them in soups and stews where their extra firmness holds up better to long cooking times.
