Trying it again today. No soup to be made, so the crumbled and remoistened mushrooms are delicious to me made with scrambled eggs and the precious liquid smells nice (except to infesting insect populations) going into container plants. Today I choose some orchids. So there! ------------------------------ Message: 9 Date: Mon, 30 Jan 2006 14:45:37 -0800 (PST) From: piaba <piabinha@yahoo.com> Subject: [pbs] OT: of shiitakes and peppercorns To: Pacific Bulb Society <pbs@lists.ibiblio.org> Message-ID: <20060130224537.4306.qmail@web51903.mail.yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 bonaventure, my mother would have skinned you alive for such offense... as bill said, the liquid from soaking dried up shiitakes is a wonderful addition for soups and stews... what a waste!!!!
