You remember that I have been dehydrating stuff recently ….
Well, today I saw mushrooms were on special offer….ah ha ! Now is the time to dehydrate some mushrooms, I thought.
However, I have now decided to take it one step further ….
I am going to be making mushroom powder.
Once dehydrated, I shall blitz the dried mushrooms …then when I want to add a powerful mushroom flavour to soups, stews, casseroles etc. I can use the mushroom powder.
No mushrooms will have to be thrown away.
I’m really getting into this now !
What do you think ?

@Traceyjayne You are right about having to use them up as mushrooms go bad pretty quickly.
With leftovers I’d either make a soup or have garlic mushrooms on toast. I love that!

That's a good way of preserving your food and also good way of incorporating mushroom to any dishes. I'd say if I try that I will make two or four different batches each with unique flavors and aromas such as mixing mushroom and pepper and the original flavor ofcourse.

That’s a really good idea ….
I hate to see waste ….i can’t use a whole pack of mushrooms on my own so this way nothing is wasted.

@Traceyjayne I agree! I don't like wasting food as well so it's a really creative way on maximizing it's potential. Thank you for sharing.

Adding it to soups and stews gives a really intense flavour….

I'm really intrigued by all the things you are dehydrating. Mushroom powder sounds like a great idea for those soups, stews, etc. I love mushrooms but sometimes they get bad before I get around to using them,
