All 3 mushrooms

Forager Mushrooms

Oyster, shiitake and porcini, dried whole. Oyster’s the mild one. Shiitake and porcini are bolder.

3 packs · $7.99–$9.49 each

Cook’s note

Don’t pour out the soaking water. That’s your stock.

Soak them 15–20 minutes in warm water, strain out the grit, and pour that water into the risotto, gravy or soup.

How much to use

Freeze-dried herbs: use the same amount as fresh herbs. Dried mushrooms: soak 15–20 minutes before cooking.

Freeze-dried herbsSame amount as fresh herbs

1 tbsp fresh = 1 tbsp freeze-dried. Air-dried herbs are the ones you cut to a third. In soups and sauces, shake them straight in. In dry dishes, wet them first with a spoonful of oil or lemon juice for 2–3 minutes.

Dried mushroomsSoak 15–20 min before cooking

0 15 20

Soak in warm water
15–20 min
Keep the water

Warm water, 15–20 minutes, until soft. Lift them out, strain the grit from the water and keep it: it’s ready-made stock.
