Wild Mushroom Seasoning Salt
Marius is an avid mushroom hunter, who has turned the boys into mushroom hunters as well. The problem is, he’s kinda the only one who likes to eat them. So whats a family with a plethora of dehydrated wild mushrooms supposed to do? We make Wild Mushroom Seasoning Salt, of course!
We use Wild Mushroom Seasoning Salt in place of seasoning salt on the vast majority of our cooking. It’s my love language, my baby, my one true love for seasoning food.
If you don’t pick and dry your own mushrooms, you’ve got a couple options. You could buy some flavourful mushrooms at the store and dry them on low in your oven. You could buy already dried mushrooms too. Some are very expensive, but at Costco I saw them for a really great price a while back.
How do we use it? Well. On everything? Liberally? In all seriousness, our favourite is to use it to season meat before cooking or on potatoes. Or on vegetables to be roasted? Season a soup? I can’t decide how I like it best. It’s half salt, half seasonings, so when seasoning your food, use double what you would use if you were using just salt and you should be dandy.

Quick question: is that 2 tbsp red pepper flakes *or* 1 tbsp black pepper, or should the black pepper be the next line down, so include both?
I keep just powdered shiitake mushrooms on hand to add umami to all sorts of stuff, so I’d love to try out this recipe.

Amazing recipe. Honestly I use it in everything from, meat, to soups when I’m out of broth

I made this recently but ended up blitzing it all together in the coffee grinder for a more fine powder. It is quite good!

This was so fun to make! And even more fun to sprinkle on food knowing the process that went into making it!
