You Will Need
1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms, substitute dried shiitake mushrooms
Directions
Place the dried porcini mushrooms into the bowl of a food processor or blender. Close the lid, and then blend until a very fine powder. Do not open the lid. Wait for the fine powder to settle before opening or else your kitchen will be dusted with mushroom powder.
When the dust has settled, transfer to an airtight container. The mushroom seasoning will keep for up to 6 months.
Adam and Joanne's Tips
- You can stir additional spices into the blended mushrooms. Consider the following: 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon ground black or white pepper, and 1 tablespoon fine sea salt.
- When blending, don’t be surprised if some mushroom dust comes out of the food processor or blender. A damp dishtowel covering the top of the processor or blender lid can help a little. Even with this, you will likely need to clean up some mushroom dust around the work area.
