Comments about Porcini Mushroom Slices in Herbs and Oil by Menu:

THE PORCINI ,EVEN IN ITALY, HAVE A LIMITED SEASON. THIS METHOD OF PREPARATION AND PACKAGING BRINGS THE SEASONAL FRESH TASTE OF THE KING BOTELUS TO THE TABLE ANY TIME OF THE YEAR. VEAL AND CHICKEN SCALOPINNI RECIPES MOST BENEFIT FROM THE FINAL ADDITION OF PORCINI, PARMIGIANA CHEESE, AND FRESH PARSLEY.

I ALSO USE HIS PRODUCT WITH THE ITALIAN WHITE BEANS AND SMALL PASTA IN MANY OF OF THE CLASSIC SOUP DISHES.
