Ways to preserve boletes?
« on: October 09, 2023, 08:35:24 PM »
How is everyone preserving their boletes? I’m thinking I will dehydrate some and the rest I will try cooking them down until the water is released and then strain and freeze like I do with chanterelles.

I dehydrate and grind. Sometimes I smoke them first. The powder is fantastic to coat steaks or chicken before grilling, or to add to rubs, make compound butter, etc.
I picked these slippery jacks yesterday. I get a bunch around this time every year and process them.
Second pick is last year's harvest after smoking and drying.

Freeze or dehydrate. You don't need to cook them down to freeze them. The excess water from cell damage will cook off.

And when boletes are wet, they hold boatloads of water.

We usually eat them all up but stumbled across a few more kings than we will get through. It will be nice to have some until spring comes. 

Great idea coating steaks with the powder. Nice haul of slippery jacks too. Do you peel the top before processing them?

Freeze whole or slice them? I will also vacuum seal them.
