Forest Mushroom Blend

This mushroom blend contains several types of gourmet mushrooms including Chilean, Bolete, Oyster, porcini b, shiitake and wood ear. The combination of meaty, delicate and nutty flavors are beautifully balanced for use in all types of dishes.

To use, first soak about a tablespoon of dried mushrooms in a cup of boiling water until the mushrooms are plump and pliable – about 10 minutes. Chop the mushrooms or add them whole to your dish, but don’t throw out the soaking liquid. It’s a cup full of flavor. Add the liquid to soup stock, use it to make rice, couscous or risotto or use it as a braising liquid.

Dried mushrooms won’t spoil if kept dry. You can use them today, next week or a year from now without waste.
