cremini
Immature portobello fungus
Cremini mushrooms are brown-capped cultivated mushrooms, the same species as white button mushrooms but harvested at a slightly more mature stage.
They have a firmer texture and earthier flavor than their white counterparts.
Left to mature further, creminis become portobello mushrooms.
Also spelled crimini.
