Dried king oyster mushrooms (also known as Pleurotus eryngii) are a convenient, shelf-stable form of the fresh mushroom. They retain much of their meaty texture and umami flavour when rehydrated. Texture (after rehydration) is firm, meaty, slightly chewy — good for stir-fries, stews, and braises! Their flavour is mild umami with a hint of sweetness; less intense than shiitake, but more substantial than button mushrooms. Rinse mushrooms under cold running water to remove any initial debris. Dried mushrooms can be reconstituted by placing them in a bowl with warm water, wine or stock. Mushrooms should rehydrate in 15-20 minutes and then be strained in a colander to remove any excess liquid and debris. Once reconstituted, the mushrooms will yield about 6-8 times their dried weight. Mushrooms must be cooked before consumption.
