Thank you very much my friend for sending this recipe luckily I have to cook it
How wonderful, how lucky that you have everything ready to go! 😊 We hope you absolutely love making these — they are such a satisfying and delicious recipe! Let us know how they turn out, we would love to hear! 🌱❤️
Is it 1 lb of dehydrated shiitake mushrooms? Or 1 lb of mushrooms that then get dehydrated? I have dehydrated mushrooms already, so I’m not sure how much to use. Thanks!
Great question, so sorry for the confusion! 😊 It is 1 lb of fresh mushrooms that then get dehydrated — so the dehydrating is part of the process to remove excess moisture and help the meatballs hold together better. Since you already have dehydrated mushrooms, you will need significantly less — approximately 2–3 oz (60–85g) of dehydrated mushrooms should be the equivalent. Rehydrate them briefly in warm water first, then squeeze out any excess moisture before using. We hope that helps and we would love to hear how they turn out! 🌱❤️
