Add a rich burst of umami flavour to savoury dishes with dehydrated mushroom powder seasoning. It's as easy as slice, dry, grind and you'll have a little jar of flavour that packs a punch.
Clean the mushrooms by gently brushing or wiping with a clean kitchen towel. Do not wash the mushrooms with water.
Slice the mushrooms to around 1cm thickness.
Place mushrooms on lined dehydrator tray and dehydrate for around 54°C for 4 - 8 hours. The mushrooms will still be slightly bendy, not crispy, when finished. Alternatively dehydrate in an oven on a cooling rack at the same temperature. If your oven does not go below 60°C, prop the oven door open with a spoon or spatula.
Add the dehydrated mushrooms to the food processor and grind to a fine powder.
Pop mushroom powder in a jar or airtight container, store in the pantry and use within 3 months.
