Black Trumpet
Black Trumpet Mushrooms are also known as Horn of Plenty (Craterellus cornucopioides). The season is from late summer to late autumn. The flavor is best after they have been dried, they have a sweet earthy richness that goes a long way to flavor soups, and stews and casseroles and they go particularly well with white fish for their flavor and as a great contrast. The fresh to dried ratio is 12 pounds of fresh to 1 pound of dried. To use: Reconstitute in 8 oz warm water per ounce of mushrooms for 10 minutes, or put in the refrigerator overnight.

Hedgehog
The hedgehog mushroom, however, has a strong characteristic flavor and odor, which becomes even more intense when the mushrooms are dried. The flesh of the mushroom is very resilient, even crunchy when raw, but remaining firm when cooked as well. Cooked fresh hedgehogs often remind consumers of meat, because the texture is so hearty. Dried hedgehogs can be used in any imaginable dish, although they are quite popular in stews and stuffings, which involve lengthy
cooking times. These types of dishes bring out the flavor of the mushroom to complement the other ingredients.

Its surface is smooth and dry, and its stem is short and broad. When in doubt, its odor is what identifies this mushroom – very spicy and clean.Excellent quality dried matsutakes, these are picked and dried the same day.
