Dried Porcini can be substituted for any mushroom in any recipe. Typically a smaller amount of dried Porcini may be used in recipes than other mushrooms due to its intense flavor. Some mushroom enthusiasts keep their dried Porcinis on a string, using a little at a time for the soup pot and when all are gone, have then cooked the string.

To reconstitute dried Porcinis, soak them in hot water for 20 minutes. Save the soaking water for use in sauces and soup stock. Porcinis should always be thoroughly cooked, as they have a reputation for causing stomach upset when eaten raw. In addition, cooking brings out the flavor. Sauté or fry them for 5 to 7 minutes; or cook them in a small amount of liquid in a tightly sealed pan for 15 minutes. Once cooked, use them in any recipe that requires mushrooms. The flavor of Porcinis blends especially well with Italian seasonings but recommended herb accompaniments are sage or rosemary.
