- Three different drying methods were studied for Indian white button mushrooms: hot-air-drying, dehumidified drying, and freeze drying, with dehumidified drying proposed as a quality-improving alternative.
- Dehumidified drying produced mushroom powder with high nutritional content, including 33.29% protein, good antioxidant properties, and ergosterol, a Vitamin D precursor.
- Incorporating 20% mushroom powder into a green gram-based chilla mix enhanced its protein, dietary fiber, and mineral content, resulting in a shelf-stable product for three months.
