Dried Porcini #1 Mushrooms: 1.6 oz/45 g tube - Wine Forest Ltd.

Boletus edulis, Origin: California, U.S.A.

Flavor-loaded dried porcini should be on every single pantry shelf.  These dried porcini are picked and dried here in the USA, in Northern California.  This large tube of dried porcini is the equivalent of always having over a pound of fresh porcini or boletes in the house.

Their legendary rich flavor is just a 15 minute water or broth soak away. Once tender they are ready for a quick sauté and to be added to everything, from endless pasta sauces, to soups. Porcini will elevate something as simple as meatloaf into something extraordinary.

 Soaking Time to Rehydrate: 15 - 20 minutes

Henry's Country Store Tip: Reserve the soaking liquid! It's literally liquid gold!! Use as an intense mushroom broth in exchange for an equivalent measure of water when cooking rice or steaming butternut squash. Use as a broth in risotto, gravy or bolognese. Add chopped fresh herbs and garlic, along with beef broth or drippings, then reduce for an amazing drizzle over your favorite steak.
