Perhaps you’ve seen influencers talking about and advertisements for a whole host of new foods and supplements infused with wild medicinal mushrooms to take advantage of their health benefits. Click HERE to learn the Health Benefits of Mushrooms

Specifically Mushroom Coffees are gaining popularity, but let me be honest with you, while they very healthy they aren’t delicious.

I’ve tried so many different mushroom containing products, but would rather us all get the health benefits of mushrooms in a traditional, real food way. Not through some marketing slogan and pretty packaging.

And they are so expensive. Oy Vey!

As avid foragers, we keep our pantry filled with a wide variety of dried wild mushrooms to use in both broth and in a wide variety of recipes. (pictured below: Morel, Maitake, Chanterelle, Chicken of the Woods, Black Trumpet and lions mane)

But you don’t have to forage your own!

Dried wild mushrooms are readily available and very affordable. You can use any combination of wild mushrooms for broth, while there will be slight differences in flavors depending upon the variety(s) used, generally speaking all individual mushrooms and combinations work.

Speaking of affordable, $10 in dried wild mushrooms will yield you nearly a gallon of Wild Mushroom Broth! 

Additionally, using a mushroom borth or mushroom stock is a wonderful savory flavor broth to use to keep recipes vegan or suitable for vegetarians, too!

How to Make Broth from Dried Mushrooms

To make broth from dried mushrooms, simply add all your ingredients to your pressure cooker or instant pot…

And add water to the MAX fill line, roughly 1 gallon in a 6 quart pressure cooker.

Then pressure cook (high or standard pressure) for 40 minutes.

With soups and broths, it’s best IMHO to let them naturally depressurize to avoid making a mess. Since your pressure cooker is filled to the max line, not only will steam escape with quick depressurizing but liquid will also spit out everywhere.

Drain your Wild Mushroom Broth through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the solids. It’s delicious sipped as-is from a mug but can also be used in any recipe calling for broth or stock.

For a double whammy of health benefits, feel free to add high quality bones to your wild mushroom broth too. You can also feel free to add extra vegetables and fresh herbs to your Wild Mushroom Broth. Carrots, stalk celery, ginger, parsley, etc make great additions!

Can you make Mushroom Broth from Fresh Mushrooms?

Yes! You can also make this Mushroom Broth Recipe from fresh mushrooms; wild mushrooms, cultivated mushrooms or a combo of both! I suggest keeping a bag in your freezer to keep stems, trimmings, pieces, peels and leftover scraps from prepparing meals to add to your broth as well.

White button mushrooms, porcini mushrooms, cremini mushrooms, etc are all delicous!

How to make Mushroom Broth without an INstant Pot

While this recipe is espically written to be FAST by using the pressure cooking function of an instant pot, you can also make Mushroom Broth on the stove top or in a slow cooker / crock pot just like my chicken broth recipe. Simply adding all your ingrediets to eather vessel, bring to a simmer and let the magic happen for a few hours!

Notes

When I make Mushroom Broth from our stash of wild foraged mushrooms, I use a mixture of Shiitakes, Morels, Chanterelles, Black Trumpet, Chicken of the Woods, Oyster and Maitake. I just add a few of each until I reach total 2 ounces on my scale.
