These Frozen Domestic Porcini- King Boletes, are a great way to enjoy this meaty mushroom all year. They are awesome cooked the same way you would cook fresh. The texture changes slightly, but the flavor remains.  The domestic porcini is a very mild flavored mushroom. They are great in sauces, stews, gravies, in casseroles and by themselves. 

 

To prepare, allow your mushrooms that you are using to defrost most of the way, and then slice them up and cook them. While they are defrosting (in the fridge preferrably) there may be liquid that comes off of them, this is normal.

Cook them as you would fresh porcini....enjoy!
