What it is
These are frozen whole porcini mushrooms in a practical 1 kg bag, ready to portion for professional cooking.
Product and format
The catalogue format is one 1 kg bag. The unit is sold by kilogram, so the kitchen can plan purchases around the individual bag rather than an assumed case quantity.
Supplier identification
The supplier record describes the item as whole frozen porcini mushrooms in a 1 kg format. No additional producer or origin is stated in the product data.
Organoleptic profile
Porcini bring an earthy mushroom aroma, a savoury umami character and a fleshy texture when prepared correctly. Keeping the pieces whole preserves a clear visual presence in the dish.
Professional uses and quantities
Use about 80 to 120 g per portion as a starting point for risotto, pasta, sauces or a mushroom side dish. Adjust the quantity to the recipe, the other ingredients and the desired prominence of the porcini.
Common mistakes to avoid
Do not thaw the mushrooms at room temperature for long, soak them unnecessarily or refreeze them after thawing. Avoid crowding the pan, which can release water before browning develops.
Storage and handling
Keep frozen according to the product label. If thawing is required, thaw under refrigeration, drain carefully and use clean utensils; follow the pack instructions after opening.
