Wine Forest – Dried Yellowfeet Mushroom – 18g

Dried yellow feet are rarely seen. We can keep it our little secret. This often neglected mushroom is wonderfully delicious and may be not be a well-known or glamorous, yet its admiring public includes knowing chefs and cooks. Like fresh yellow foot mushrooms, it is especially good braised with meat.

Yellow feet become a melting and silky mushroom sauce in the bottom of the braising pan, and preparation of these is easy and quick. One ounce of dried yellow feet equals nearly one pound of fresh.
