Rich flavor. Long shelf life. Simple to use.
HOW TO USE THEM
Rehydrate
Place mushrooms in warm water for 15–30 minutes before cooking.

Tip: Save the soaking liquid and use it in soups, sauces, or rice for extra mushroom flavor.

You can also use dehydrated mushrooms without soaking.
Try:
blending into powder
