What it is

Dried mushrooms are mushrooms that have had most of their water content removed through drying. This process concentrates their flavor and extends their shelf life. They can be dried naturally in the sun or using dehydrators.

Why it's used

Dried mushrooms are used to add a deep, savory, umami flavor to dishes. They are commonly found in soups, stews, sauces, and savory baked goods. Their concentrated flavor makes them a potent seasoning ingredient.

Health notes

Dried mushrooms are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. They are a source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated mushrooms, and EFSA has evaluated certain mushroom extracts. Consuming mushrooms as part of a balanced diet is associated with various health benefits in peer-reviewed literature.

Allergen info

Mushrooms are not one of the nine FDA major allergens. They do not contain gluten.
