Good news: Racines boréales products are arriving on the shelves of your favorite local merchants! You can now find 2 of our wild mushrooms, our dehydrated morels and our dehydrated chanterelles , as well as a boreal spice, our dune pepper in your local delicatessen.
Here is what we offer you in terms of local products:
Dehydrated morels
The ultimate forest mushroom, the morel is among the most sought-after forest products. It gives a powerful umami taste to your dishes and reveals a woody aspect and a nutty flavour.
Dehydrated, it is used to add flavor to your dishes with sauces, terrines or pastas.
To rehydrate morels, simply immerse them in a hot liquid (broth, cream, wine, beer, water) until they are tender. Then add morels to your recipe and cook with their rehydration liquid, which is bursting with flavor!
Dune pepper
With its resinous, minty, delicately peppery and fruity taste, dune pepper is truly a local spice! Perfectly versatile, it can impart its aromatic properties to your savory or sweet dishes!
We recommend adding it to your jams (yes!), your stews, and your Asian dishes.
To use dune pepper, several methods are available to you:
- add it whole to a dish with sauce, then remove it before serving (like a bay leaf);
- grind it in a mortar and add it at the end of cooking;
- grate it with a microplane for a similar effect.
Keep in mind: the earlier you add the dune pepper, the more bitterness it will release. At the end of cooking or finishing, it will be its aromatic side that will reveal itself.
Dehydrated chanterelles
Chanterelles are among the finest mushrooms in our forests. They have a woody, buttery and delicately fruity taste which is highly sought after by chefs. It is the ultimate gourmet mushroom with its buttery croissant aroma.
Dried chanterelles are perfect for adding to your dishes with sauces, terrines or pastas.
To rehydrate the chanterelles, simply immerse them in a hot liquid (broth, cream, wine, beer, water) until they are tender. Then add the chanterelles to your recipe and cook with their rehydration liquid, which is bursting with flavor!
