Sweet potato gnocchi with black trumpet mushrooms and braised rabbit is a recipe I made for Halloween one year when I was the chef at Lucia’s Restaurant in Minneapolis. I thought it would be fun to run a dish that combined orange and black. Black trumpets and squash gnocchi fit the bill, and it’s a…
Dried Wild Mushroom Recipes
Dried mushrooms have infinite uses. I have lots of ideas here, ranging from simple soups like dried mushroom bisque, to dried mushroom rubs and spice blends crafted for specific species. Take a look and see what looks good to you, and adapt things to the mushrooms in your area.
Make sure not to miss dried mushroom butter, mushroom rubbed meats, or dried mushroom bisque.
Maple Black Trumpet Mushroom Jam
Black trumpet jam is a fantastic sweet and savory recipe using fresh or dried black trumpet mushrooms that can change the way you consider cooking with your haul. Earlier this summer, I finally had the pleasure of meeting Chad Hyatt, chef turned freelancer and author of the book The Mushroom Hunters Kitchen. At the event…
Black Trumpet Mushroom Potato Puree
Black trumpet potato puree (think dried-mushrooms pureed into mashed potatoes) came from a dish I’d heard about when I was moonlighting as the stylist on Lenny Russo’s cookbook. It’s one of the more interesting wild mushroom recipes I’ve done. Over the course of the eight month project, photographer Tom Thulen and I would work off…
Dried Wild Mushroom Stuffing with Gizzard Confit
On one side of my family there’s often a collaborative effort for Thanksgiving. This year, I’m bringing my favorite dried wild mushroom stuffing recipe, with a few handfuls of turkey gizzard confit for good measure. When I say my favorite stuffing too, I mean it. I’m including some images of the same recipe that go…

Wild Szechuan peppercorns are one of the key ingredients here (along with dried wild mushrooms). The fruit will…
Venison Osso Bucco with Dried Wild Mushrooms
There is possibly nothing more satisfying than eating an entire venison shank, and one of my favorite ways to cook them is a simple braise with dried mushrooms, herbs, stock and wine. It’s a good dried wild mushroom recipe if you have some laying around, as many of you do. Cutting down the shanks Venison…
Dried Morel Pilaf with Venison
I’ve been craving some comfort food and trying to use up my stash of dried morel mushrooms before the next season gets here. A simple pilaf was one of the morel recipes I’ve been working on lately, and if you like things like Rice-A-Roni like I did when I was a kid, I think you’ll…
Eggs de Gaulle with Morels and Shrimp
Baked eggs with dried morel mushrooms and shrimp is one a great recipe I’ve borrowed from the Legendary Jacques Pepin, and a favorite of a number of people I know in the mushroom hunting community, including myself. Technically, the dish has two names, the first is Eggs en Cocotte, which basically means eggs steamed or…
