Porcini mushrooms are brown-capped mushrooms with thick, white stalks. It is sold both fresh and dried, are prized in Italian and French cuisine.
Porcini mushrooms are often described as nutty and earthy with a meatiness in flavour and texture.
Dried porcini add a deep, mushroom flavour to broths or sauces and, once rehydrated, have a slightly chewy texture. It can be sautéed, braised, fried, grilled, or stewed.
The broth produced by soaking dried porcini adds a depth of flavour to soups and recipes that use stock, and the rehydrated mushrooms can be chopped and added to dishes.
