Fungi Foray Porcini Cep Mushroom Powder 1kg
Porcini Mushroom Powder
Fungi Foray Porcini Cep Mushroom Powder is a concentrated seasoning made from dried cep and porcini mushrooms, finely ground so you can add deep mushroom flavour in seconds. It brings an earthy, savoury umami note that tastes like a slow cooked stock, which is ideal when you want richer flavour without adding extra liquid. Stir it into sauces and gravies, fold it through risotto and pasta dishes, or add a small pinch to soups and stews to give them a fuller, more rounded finish. Because it is a powder, it is also great for quick flavour boosts, such as seasoning roasted vegetables or adding a porcini edge to butter, cream sauces, or meat rubs.
Key Features:

Recipe Inspiration:

- Rich onion gravy for roast dinners, whisking in a small amount of porcini powder to make it taste fuller and more savoury.
- Creamy mushroom pasta where you stir the powder into cream and stock before tossing through tagliatelle and finishing with lemon zest.
- Porcini roasted potatoes, mixing the powder with salt and oil, then coating parboiled potatoes before roasting until crisp.
How do you stop porcini mushroom powder clumping in sauces?
Mix it with a spoonful of warm stock, cream, or melted butter first to form a smooth paste, then whisk that into your sauce so it disperses evenly.
Can you use porcini powder to make a quick mushroom broth?
Yes, you can stir it into hot water or stock and let it sit briefly, then strain if you want a cleaner finish. It is a handy shortcut for adding a porcini base to ramen style broths, risotto liquid, or pan sauces.
How much porcini mushroom powder should you add to a dish?
Start with a small pinch, taste, then build gradually because the flavour is concentrated. In larger dishes like stews or ragus, it is often best added in stages so you can stop when the mushroom flavour tastes balanced rather than dominant.
