DRIED MUSHROOMS
Dried mushrooms have several advantages over fresh. They can be stored for longer periods of time, they are easily reconstituted and can be used in place of fresh mushrooms in most recipes. Specialty Farms offers 3 varieties—porcini, shiitake, and oyster. They all contain all the essential amino acids, making their protein complete. On average, the protein value of these 3 varieties is twice as that of asparagus and potatoes, 4 times that of tomatoes and carrots and 6 times that of oranges. For vegetarians, dried mushrooms make an ideal meat substitute.
