How to clean mushrooms?

Question

Some people say cleaning with water removes the taste from mushrooms.

But if I don't use water the mushrooms will carry a lot of dust.

Do you have any techniques for cleaning mushroom so I don't eat crap but don't spoil the mushroom?

Answer

I find that brushes and even paper towels are too rough on mushrooms. I use cold running water and gentle rubbing by hand.
