I once got a great deal on a mix of exotic, dried mushrooms from Costco - but I couldn’t figure out how to use them. No matter what I did, they came out tough and too salty.
How do you manage them?
I usually soak mine in hot water until they soften up. Then I have mushroom broth as well:-)
Do you rehydrate them before you use them ?
” No matter what I did, they came out tough and too salty.”
Huh? Salty? Salt was used in the drying process? Soak for a few day and change the water frequently. Boiling, take out too much flavor. Taste the salt content with ever ready to dispose dispatch of water? If it’s Ok use it.
Oh Lordy, I’ve turned into a cooking neurotic!!!
(”disposed dispatch”!! I can’t believe I typed that!!! LOL!)
