Premium Imported Dried Wild Mushroom Mix from Roland Foods

Tessa N. Denham: I buy these once or twice a year and normally love them. So much! I don't have the patience to reconstitute them whole, and don't like the texture of some of them. That would be the same for any brand or type of dried mushroom so I don't consider it to be anything negative about this particular product.
I don't use them while, but I use them several different ways. I chop them into small pieces with an immersion blender and hot water. I blend them into tiny tiny pieces with hot water and and immersion blender or in my nutribullet. Or I blend them dry in the nutribullet. They reconstitute much more quickly in smaller pieces. If ill be cooking them in a sauce or soup or something liquid for 10 minutes or so, I don't bother reconstitution in advance. The water from reconstitution them makes a delicious replacement for other watery ingredients like chicken broth. Blending into tiny pieces with a small amount of hot water can produce a nice mushroom paste that can be used as is or added to sauces. When the container is almost empty and its time to order more, I pour the remainder into the nutribullet and turn it into a dry umami powder that I put in a spice jar and sprinkle on...

Carol G: I love this mix. I have used it several times, and last night I made two different recipes with them. The first was a mushroom sauce to go over two wonderful steaks, and the other was a blend in for some beautiful green beans. Excellent. They are flavorful, large pieces that you can cut as needed. As someone else mentioned, there is a little bit of sand, so you need to soak them well and then rinse and drain them. Repeat a couple of times, and they are delicious!

Stoney: > Larger container than I expected --- about a gallon, maybe a gallon and a half.
> Seems to be very good quality, large pieces -- no mold.
> Mine have a little sand (a very little sand, but even a little can be offputting in a finished dish). So, soak them thoroughly to hydrate, and change the water several times (largely to wash out any sand).
> All the mushrooms that I've encountered so far appear to be chanterelles (or possibly oyster mushrooms) and boletes, albeit that may change with the season that the mushrooms were picked. Neither was strongly flavorful.
> The mushrooms can be hydrated in 15-30 minutes in warm (not hot) water. Even hydrated, they are much more chewy than fresh or canned mushrooms. It's best to hydrate them separately in pure water --- don't count on them hydrating adequately from the water in a soup, or in a sauce (perhaps with the idea of thickening the sauce, absorbing favor from the sauce, or retaining more mushroom flavor --- won't happen -- or at least the results will not be satisfactory). For at least most uses, the mushrooms are best as hydrated as possible, which requires hydrating in plain water. After hydration, you...

C C: Very good value for the $. Read up on how to reconstitute the mushrooms before using... you can't just do it in a few minutes because the mushrooms will not be ready to use. I do however grind the dry ones into a powder that can be added to soups, stews, etc.
