Are you getting the most out of fungi in your life? Here is a little tip for you. Incorporate dried mushrooms, which add a high concentration of umami and a chewy texture with rich, savory flavor to your meals. Dried mushrooms are often used with button mushrooms to enhance their flavor. Prior to using them, they will need to be reconstituted by soaking them with room temperature water, which produces a flavorful liquid that can also be used in soups, stews, sauces, pâtés, and gratins along with the mushrooms themselves. Cool soaking water maintains the flavor in the mushroom, so only use hot water for thickly sliced or capped mushrooms if you’re in a hurry. Dried mushrooms can be consumed any time during the year and don’t take much space in the fridge so incorporate them frequently in your wonderful vegan lifestyle.

Ethan is giving his friend Leo some advice:

“I’m not sure what that word means, Ethan.”
“Just go on the internet and look it up.”
The next time they meet, Leo is wearing a very shiny metallic suit.
“What’s all this?”
“I took your advice, Ethan – I’m being reflective!”
