Kitchen Preparation Tip:
Simply submerge your dried mushrooms in boiling water, stock, or wine for 15 to 20 minutes until soft. Drain and press out excess liquid before cooking. *Bonus Chef Tip:* Never throw away the soaking liquid! Strain it through a fine mesh and use it as a deeply flavorful cooking stock.
