Sous Chef Mushroom & Truffles Wild Mushroom Mix – ‘Forest Selection’ 40g

This ‘forest selection’ dried wild mushroom mix is a store-cupboard favourite, with a careful selection of flavour-rich mushrooms to give a great balance of taste and texture. We work closely with producers to ensure we receive only the finest quality mushrooms under the Sous Chef brand.

Once the dried mixed mushrooms are rehydrated according to directions on the packet, enjoy them in rich bourginon stews, noodle broths, and creamy sauces. Or pan-fry in a little butter to stir through pasta. 

One of our favourite ways to use rehydrated wild mushrooms is to pan-fry them in butter with chestnut mushrooms or ordinary white mushrooms, making the flavours go even further.

To use 

To rehydrate, add the mushrooms to a saucepan with at least 500ml hot water. Boil for 7 mins. Lift out with a slotted spoon and discard the water, then rinse well in several more changes of water. 

Ingredients: Porcini, yellow boletus, oyster mushrooms, black trumpet.

Please note that the yellow boletus mushrooms may develop a white coating on their surface when dried. This is a natural sugar crystallisation, as the variety of mushroom is particularly carbohydrate rich. It doesn’t affect the quality of the product and disappears when cooked.
