SC - Mushrooms! -Reply

[Deloris Booker]

Yes the mushrooms that have petrified in the frig are perfectly useable in
soups, stews, chili, etc. - anything with a sufficient amount of liquid to
rehydrate them.  In fact they even work well in my favourite one dish
no brain dinner - meat (chicken peices, eye of round, whatever) plus
potatoes plus at least 2 vegetables that can be roasted plus a  quatered
onion - put in covered roasing pan with about .5 inch water at 350 degrees
F. until cooked - go off and do mail, start laundry, read email, play with
kids or whatever while dinner is cooking.   Delicious, never fails, uses
up all sorts of tag ends from the frig.
