Looking to add depth of flavour to your cooking all year round? Look no further than our outstanding selection of dried mushrooms!
While fresh mushrooms are a seasonal delight, their dried counterparts offer an intense concentration of flavour that can transform soups, stews, sauces and sautés. From shiitakes to porcini, morels to chanterelles, our selection of dried mushrooms ensures that you can enjoy these flavorful delights any time of year.
To rehydrate your dried mushrooms, simply steep them in hot water and let them soak until they are plump and tender. You can even rinse them after soaking to create a tasty broth with the drained liquor. For an even more intense flavour, sauté your rehydrated mushrooms with shallots, garlic, or onion.
Whole or sliced, dried shiitake mushrooms deliver a meaty, smoky, savoury umami taste that can transform any dish, from risottos and soups to Japanese-inspired dishes with a little soy sauce.
The horn-shaped black chanterelle mushroom, or 'trompette de la mort', has a rich and nutty flavour with overtones of black truffles when dried. Porcini mushrooms give a tremendous nutty boost to risottos with plenty of parmesan, butter and parsley.
Morel mushrooms are one of spring's early arrivals and our dried medium-sized whole morels are a great addition to meat & poultry, fish dishes and ideal for vegetarian cuisine too. Scottish girolles are a favourite with chefs and are a delight with turbot or halibut.
Mixtures of dried mushrooms can complement each other perfectly. Try a fragrant exotic mixture of dried forest mushrooms in stews or as a stuffing ingredient. Our mix of dried trompette and girolle is outstanding for wild mushroom pasta dishes, while sweet girolles and morels are the perfect combinations for a risotto.
For an autumnal boost to casseroles, soufflés or marinades, keep Gauguin's rich combination of cep and porcini mushroom powder as a store cupboard essential.
