i encourage Costco buying manager to try this product ( dried gourmet mix mushrooms). They are chewy, tough, tasteless. After giving them a try 3 different times, I just threw the rest away. Horrible product.
these are a horrible disappointment; not able to re-hydrate; totally agree with Felix above

I luv’d these mushrooms and am bummed I could only find them once. I am vegetarian and think that firmer & chewier mushrooms give a meat-like texture to chili, soups, etc.
I really love the wild mushroom. They are so tasty. I hope it will be available again at costco abbotsford canada. I can’t wait to buy it again.
These mushrooms are great. If you are having problems it’s probably because you are not comparing them properly.
I AM STILL WISHING THEY COME BACK TO THE BOSTON AREA. I HAVE RUN OUT AND DON’T WANT TO GET THEM FROM AMAZON. I LIKE TO LOOK AND CHOOSE MY PACKAGE. I GUESS I WILL NEED TO STOCK UP NEXT TIME.
THEY ARE AMAZING IN A LAST MINUTE IDEA. I PUT THEM IN EVERYTHING. WHEN I OWNED A RESTAURANT, I HAD THEM AT THE READY ALL THE TIME. 🙂
I agree with the negative comments. I have followed the directions on the label to a tee and still these are hard and horrible. I’ve tried several ways to re-hydrate and they are just terrible.
You folks are doing it wrong. Those mushrooms are awesome. I toss them in the pressure cooker with the rice or early when I’m cooking on the stove. They are supposed to be a little chewy like the delicious bits of fungus that they are. What are you expecting that the plump up to be the same as fresh mushrooms?
I love these mushrooms for a variety of dishes I make. They can be reconstituted to have pieces in a mushroom soup. They can be ground to add a tasty base to stroganoff without the saltiness of bouillon. If expectations are for them to be creamy like fresh mushrooms, you will be disappointed as noted above. I hope Costco will begin carry them again soon.
My family and I enjoy these mushrooms. I rehydrate them and then fry them with onions and garlic they are the first dish to disappear. I hope Costco puts them on the shelves again.
Years ago I bought this product at a Montreal Costco. Loved it! Loved the price too. I never had problems rehydrating the mushrooms using boiling water and letting them soak for 30 minutes. I don’t use a soup bowl for this task as the water turns lukewarm too soon. I prefer a deep glass jar or huge glass measuring cup. I noticed that sometimes one of the four types of mushrooms is still a bit hard after soaking but since they all go in the slow cooker, everything turns out perfect. I just wish that product would come back on Costco’s shelve in Montreal.
So very disappointed. I used to buy a dried mushroom product from Tones but they disappeared so I was very pleased to see these at Costco. I’ve tried three times, following the directions exactly, and they turn out chewy. Will take them back to Costco the next time I go.
They’re back in Montreal at the Marche Central store.
I bought the dried wild mushroom mix at Cosco in Clearwater, FL for less than $10.00.
dehydrated as suggested. took longer and still came out tough but tasty. i’ll use my instapot
next time. sure it will be more tender.
Just bought these at Sacramento, CA Costco 10/22/22
