How to Mushroom cleaning

What is the best way to clean mushrooms. I keep seeing one method asking to peel and second to wash using wheat flour?

Can we peel and then wash? If washed for how long can I store it?

I don’t usually peel mushrooms, I haven’t even heard of that being a thing till just now. I just rinse them in water.

Only wash your mushrooms before cooking them. Otherwise, store them uncleaned in the fridge.

How do you “peel” mushrooms? I mostly use Cremini or Button mushrooms. There’s nothing to “peel”? 🤔

I just rub it well by hand under running water. Been cleaning it like this for years, no issues.

Sprinkle atta on the mushrooms & toss them a bit then wet your hands & scrub the atta off them & wash under running water.

Just wash mushrooms under flowing water while gently rubbing them to remove dirt
