The Wild Mushroom CoDried Gourmet Mix European Mushrooms 12 Ounces (340g)

There is no downside to these mushrooms. I have been using these mushrooms for quite some time now. I first found them at Costco and was delighted to find them now on Amazon. They rehydrate very well but I use most of them as mushroom powder. Just put them in the food processor and grind into a powder. The powder adds mushroom flavor to a wide variety of dishes. There is a nice variety of mushrooms and the flavors are very good. Also very few broken pieces at the bottom of the container. Saves money as there are no fresh mushrooms to go bad in the refrigerator, no trips to the store, and best of all, they are ready to use at any moment.

These are SO delicious! I used to be able to get these jumbo jars at our big box store but no longer. I was happy to find them on Amazon. A few go a long way to add depth of flavor to most any sauce where you use fresh mushrooms. These naturally contain grit and are very dry. I use my pressure cooker to rehydrate them or you could simmer on the stove top. I rinse them while still dry to remove as much grit as I can then into the pot and cover with water. I pressure cook for at least 30 minutes or simmer on the stovetop for at least an hour or until they are tender. Drain in a fine mesh strainer and keep the liquid to use as the base of your sauce. I then rinse the mushrooms again under running water to get the remainder of the grit out using my fingers to agitate them. They are then ready to go. Then I strain the liquid through a coffee filter so that it is perfectly clean. You now have wild mushrooms that will have you eating your sauce from the pot. Shallots, wine, butter, cream, fresh herbs and you have the star of the meal and your house will smell AMAZING. If you love mushrooms buy these now!

Smells like good mushrooms and makes a very full mushroomy flavor in the soup I made. I didn't need to use much, either.

I purchased these as a gift for a friend whose parents used to collect and dry wild mushrooms. My friend was very happy with the assortment and apparent quality of the product. I can’t wait to be served some of these when I’m at their place for dinner.Both my friend and I also think this is a good value.

I put them into the food processor with a few herbs and spices and pulse until they are very fine. This makes a great Umame seasoning. Soups, casseroles, stews or whatever. Even people who don't like mushrooms because of the texture are fine with this. There is no strong mushroom flavor.It's much cheaper than store bought versions and I can tailor the spices to my family's preferences.It really does add an extra depth of flavor to many dishes.

Absolutely love this mushrooms. The only one sad thing- we ate it TOO fast 🤣🤣🤣Taste is very flavored, love it

After reconstituting and rinsing, and rinsing again in boiling water because of the dirt smell, i added the mushrooms to my stir fry. The texture was rubbery carboard, and the taste was like rotting compost. I tried again, rinsing the mushrooms thoroughly, boiling them in water for over 10 minutes, then rinsing in cold water then more boiling water. After all that, i tried chopping them into unform pieces for a gravy. It was as if they were still dried. I tasted a couple and through them out. I love good mushrooms, and this product is not it.PS: I have used dried mushrooms in the past, so the comparison is to past experience with comparable products.

First of all, the instructions state to SOAK FOR 25 MIN. then BOIL FOR 5 MIN. for those who have given this a bad review for not following the instructions! 10 minutes is NOT ENOUGH!This blend of mushrooms is one that I'll continue to buy.The mushrooms are of superior quality. No broken mushrooms. No leftover powder on the bottom.I was so happy to find a good, premier blend of mushrooms.The reconstitution is easy. I soak them in water for about half an hour. Then I boil them for about 5-10 minutes. I'm left with juicy, flavorful mushroom that are recipe ready.I even use the juice that's left behind. They are clean with no dirt so every bit of the leftover water I use to flavor my recipe even more.Two thumbs up for this brand.This container will last me for many meals, and it stores nicely in my cupboard.
