Dried mushrooms are loved by many people because of their rich taste, can be used to process many dishes and preserved for a long time. You can dry mushrooms and use them to make soups, risotto, pasta, or many other delicious dishes. Here’s how to dry your own mushrooms at home:
Steps
Drying Mushrooms in the Oven
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/4b/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-1-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-1- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/4b/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-1-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-1-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Wash the mushrooms before drying. If possible, use a brush or dry paper towel to wipe away any dirt on the mushrooms. Avoid getting the mushrooms too wet when washing as water can cause mold or competing fungi to grow on the mushrooms when you dry or store them. Ingesting these competing molds and fungi is not healthy. [1] X Research Source
- If there are stains that are difficult to remove, you can use a wet cloth or paper towel to scrub them away. Note that it is recommended to use a dry towel or paper towel to dry any remaining water on the mushroom body.

Cut mushrooms. The thicker the mushroom, the longer it takes to dry. To speed up the drying process, cut the mushrooms into thin slices about 0.5 cm. Thinly sliced mushrooms will dry faster and still retain great flavor for cooking.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/c8/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-3- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/c8/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Arrange mushrooms on a baking tray. Make sure that the mushrooms are laid flat, not overlapping, and should only be stacked in one layer to prevent the mushrooms from sticking when drying.
- Do not oil the baking tray because the mushrooms will change their taste due to the oil and take a long time to dry.

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/da/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-4- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/da/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-4-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Preheat the oven to 65 degrees Celsius. When the oven is hot enough, put the mushroom tray in and let it dry for about 1 hour. [2] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/90/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-5-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-5- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/90/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-5-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-5-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Remove the mushrooms from the oven after an hour. Then, turn the mushrooms over so that they dry evenly. At this time, use a paper towel or wet towel to wipe away the water that has accumulated on the absorbent body during the drying process.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/f/f9/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-6-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-6- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/f/f9/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-6-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-6-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Put the mushrooms back in the oven. Dry for another hour or until the mushrooms are completely dry.
- When taking out the mushrooms, check to see if the mushrooms are still damp. If still damp, turn the mushrooms over and blot with a paper towel. Then, put the mushrooms in the oven to dry again.

Let the mushrooms cool. Once removed from the oven, leave the mushrooms intact on the baking sheet and let cool. Do not put hot mushrooms in a plastic container and cover tightly as heat can collect inside and damage the mushrooms.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/7c/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-9-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-9- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/7c/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-9-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-9-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Store dried mushrooms in an airtight container. Once the mushrooms have cooled completely, place them in an airtight container. Store the container in a cool, dark place until ready to use. Mushrooms can be used to make soups, baked pasta or delicious Risotto rice. [4] X Research Sources
Natural Mushroom Drying
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/43/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-10-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-10- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/43/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-10-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-10-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Wash the mushrooms and slice them. You should only use a brush or dry towel to wash the mushrooms according to the instructions above. Washing should not be done with water as standing water on the stems can cause mold or competing fungi to grow. Cut mushrooms into 1.5 cm thick slices.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/e6/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-11-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-11- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/e6/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-11-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-11-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Check weather conditions. The natural method of drying mushrooms should only be used when it is sunny or the humidity is low. Too much humidity in the air will cause mold to grow and the fungus will take a long time to dry.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/21/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-12-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-12- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/2/21/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-12-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-12-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Find a convenient location for drying. You should choose a room that can receive a lot of sunshine, a windowsill or a ventilated terrace. Also, choose a location that avoids birds, animals, insects, and moisture from coming into contact with the fungus. [5] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/b8/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-13-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-13- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/b8/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-13-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-13-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Arrange mushrooms to dry. You can arrange mushrooms on a special rack for drying food or use a special umbrella when cooking to string mushrooms. [6] X Research Source
- Using a stand: Arrange the mushrooms in a single layer. Make sure that the mushrooms do not overlap to avoid sticking when drying or bending into a strange shape. Use a mesh tent covered with mushrooms and a stand to keep out insects. You can buy mesh tents at kitchen supply stores. If you don’t have one, you can use a mesh cloth around the stand.

Place the mushrooms in a dry place. If using an umbrella string to string mushrooms, hang the mushrooms in a dry, sunny place. Let the mushrooms dry in the sun for 1-2 days and check regularly every day.
- Consider drying mushrooms in the oven if the mushrooms are not completely dry after 2 days of sun exposure. You can dry mushrooms in the oven according to the instructions above.

Freeze-drying Mushrooms
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/95/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-15-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-15- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/95/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-15-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-15-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Lay the paper towels on a flat surface. Then, arrange the washed and sliced mushrooms on a paper towel. Should only be stacked in one layer and mushrooms should not overlap to avoid sticking. Mushrooms must also be cleaned of water because any remaining water can freeze and damage the mushrooms.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/57/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-16-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-16- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/57/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-16-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-16-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Lay another layer of paper towels over the mushrooms. Continue layering mushrooms alternately with paper towels.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/d2/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-17-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-17- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/d2/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-17-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-17-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Place mushrooms alternately with paper towels in a paper bag. Mushrooms and paper must be placed in the paper bag. The paper bag should allow steam to escape as the mushrooms dry.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/3e/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-18-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry-Mushrooms-Step-18- Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/3e/Dry-Mushrooms-Step-18-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dry- Mushrooms-Step-18-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Put the paper bag in the freezer. Over time, the mushrooms in the freezer will begin to dry out. This method takes longer for the mushrooms to dry, but is more effective, especially if you don’t want to use them right away. [8] X Research Sources
