Bubba Vic, I know you treasure the rehydrating liquid from dried
mushrooms. Is it the kind of thing to use generously or to use
sparingly? Do I want to freeze 1/4 cup portions or, say, 1 cup
portions? All I can think to do with it is to add it to the liquid or
drippings for gravy making.

I rehydrated 30g of 10-year-old mushrooms from the hills of NE Slovakia
and 100g of porcini I bought in Italy three years ago. Final product is
machanka for my Christmas meal tomorrow.

AND you can see some of my properly triangle-shape pirohy he
http://gallery.me.com/barbschaller#100359. Between my brother and I, we
have about 14-16 dozen, plus 4 dozen that Nurse Niece Sandra is
bringing. Mine were kraut, cottage cheese, prune; brother and I did 7
dozen kraut-filled on Monday, and Sandy's bringing potato-filled.

So, what do I do with the mushroom liquid?
