How to Dry Mushrooms - Moral Fibres

Prep Time:5

Cook Time:20

Total Time:25

Clean your mushrooms (you can use any type of edible mushroom). I used a dry towel to clean them, but if yours are particularly dirty and need washing make sure you give them a good dry after washing.
Chop into half an inch thick slices. If you slice them thicker then they'll take longer to dry out, so remember to adjust your cooking time. Some of the stalks are missing in the photo above as mine had sat in the fridge for so long, and had gone a bit funny, but otherwise there's no need to remove the stalks.
Place on a baking tray in preheated (180ºC / 350ºF / gas mark 4) oven for 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven, turn over, and place back in the oven for a further 20 minutes, or until dry and the mushroom snaps when you break it in half. They shouldn't feel spongy, but crispy.
Store in a clean airtight jar in a dark place for years!
