Some of the grocery stores I go to stopped carrying dried porcini mushrooms, and whole foods is over-priced, so I started searching online and reading various reviews. Some of my favorite dishes use porcinis and wouldn't be the same without them. Contrary to what a few folks said here, these are very good quality mushrooms. They smell great when opened. The pieces are good sized, and there is very little dirt. I almost didn't strain them since they were so darn clean, but decided to and there was hardly anything to strain. (I also do a quick rinse before rehydrating, and I really think that's all they need.) The price is also very reasonable. I've been using porcinis for years so I think I should have decent grounds for an opinion.
I used them in soup while backpacking and they got soft much faster than I thought they would. They tasted good.
I couldn't find it anywhere else. Like it. I hope it comes with bigger package.
Fine quality. Minimal grit - no worms. Intense flavor.
Very fragrant, rehydrates well and has been dried properly. Package comes with whole pieces without disproportionate quantities of stems and sealed tightly. Easy to grind, too. Great value!

Excellent cooking ingredient - essential for great recipes - no rush like with fresh, but still great taste and flavor.
These made my soup very delicious!
