Dried Porcini Mushrooms, Special Grade

An old folk legend tells that porcini mushrooms with curved and curled stems grow in that shape to speak to other mushrooms, almost as if calling out to one another across the forest floor. It is only a legend, but experienced mushroom hunters often look around carefully, following the direction suggested by the mushroom caps. Dried porcini mushrooms "special quality" are truly special: after just twenty minutes of rehydration, they release all the flavor and aroma of fresh porcini mushrooms. While using them in a traditional creamy risotto is practically a sacred ritual, we encourage you to explore the versatility of this delicious gift from the earth and let your imagination lead the way.
