Dried Morel Mushrooms 16 oz.

Details

Serve flavorful dishes year-round with the use of these dried morel mushrooms! Morel mushrooms are one of the most desired mushroom varieties worldwide, due to their rarity in the wild and how difficult it is to cultivate them. These remarkable mushrooms are beloved by chefs worldwide for their beautiful honeycomb appearance on the conically-shaped mushroom cap. Hollow on the inside, but boasting a meaty texture, these mushrooms wow with their earthy, nutty flavor with hints of smokiness. As a great way to enjoy morel mushrooms, these dried morels allow you to cook with this seasonal mushroom year-round, rehydrating to their original fresh form when soaked in water. Best of all, these dried morels have a deeper, more concentrated flavor than fresh morels, bringing a burst of umami richness to any recipe they're used in. Plus, when stored in an airtight container or under refrigeration, these mushrooms can keep for months or even years, unlike fresh morels, which spoil quickly.

To use these morel mushrooms, gently rinse them with tap water to remove any impurities, then add them to a bowl with 2 cups of warm water per 1 oz. of dried mushrooms. Allow the mushrooms to rehydrate in the warm water until they are soft and springy, approximately 2 hours, or overnight. Once they are fully rehydrated, strain them through a coffee filter or paper towel, reserving the liquid for use in a recipe, such as a stock or soup. These dried mushrooms are whole, allowing you to leave them whole or to chop, dice, or slice them to meet your needs. They make a great addition to a wide variety of recipes! Add the rehydrated morels and rehydrating liquid to Arborio rice that has been toasted in butter and shallot to create a nutty, flavorful morel mushroom risotto. These mushrooms also make a delicious addition to soups, sauces, butters, stir frys, or any dish that could use a burst of woodsy flavor. No matter how you choose to use them, these dried morel mushrooms are a reliable way to add the delicious flavor of this mushroom to your menu!
