A small white-button mushroom is barely over a third the weight of a large one, so 'eight mushrooms' in a sauce can swing the yield. Pick the right size below to keep risotto, pasta, and stroganoff on target. Sizes here cover white buttons only; portobello caps run much larger and aren't included.

Mushroom varieties and best uses
The conversions above are the same whatever variety you use; the difference is what each is good for. Here is how the common mushroom varieties compare.
| Variety | Best for |
|---|---|
| White Button | Everyday sautéing, soups, and pizza: mild and tender, the standard supermarket mushroom. |
| Cremini (Baby Bella) | All-purpose cooking: brown-skinned, firmer, meatier white-mushroom variety with deeper flavour. Sold as Cremini, Baby Bella, or Portobellini. |
| Shiitake | Asian dishes and stocks: woody stems, strong umami; sold fresh or dried. |
| Oyster | Quick sautés and stir-fries: delicate, fan-shaped caps that cook in minutes. |
| Chestnut | Roasting and risotto: nutty brown caps, firmer than white button, similar to cremini. |
| Porcini | Risotto, sauces, and stews: deeply savoury; usually sold dried and rehydrated. |
Which should I pick?
For everyday sautéing, pasta, and risotto, Cremini (Baby Bella) gives deeper, meatier flavour than White Button. No Cremini? White Button is the reliable supermarket default. For stocks and stir-fries that want strong umami, reach for Shiitake; for tender quick sautés where you don't want the mushroom to overpower, Oyster.
