Porcini Mushrooms (Boletus Edulis) are a very popular Mushroom
throughout Europe and the United States. During the fall months in
Italy, the Porcini grows in abundance. Porcini has a strong flavor with
subtle undertones. The flavor can be almost addicting. Dried Porcini are
very economical as the flavor is very concentrated. In Italian, Porcini
means Piglets. Porcini is graded by size, color, aroma, and variety.
Suggested Use:
Porcini
are delicious in soups, sauces, stuffings and stews. Dried Porcini can
be substituted for any Mushroom in any recipe; typically a smaller
amount of Dried Porcini can be used in recipes than other Mushrooms
because of the intense flavor of the Porcini.
