Is it dangerous to allow dried mushrooms to touch a desiccant packet?
    #25300500 - 06/30/18 09:50 AM (6 years, 6 months ago)

Sorry, I'm not sure where to post this. I have a very small amount of mushrooms from a hunt a few months ago, and I've kept them in a jar ever since dehydrating. I put a little packet of desiccant in there from a medicine bottle too. Is this okay? It's been in there for a few months so there would be no salvaging the mushrooms if it's dangerous.

I read that mushrooms should never ever come in contact with desiccant but I'm thinking if that's just when there is no package containing it.

You're correct. If desiccant isn't in a package, then mushrooms touching it will start to absorb the water from it. Is long as they're dry, you're fine.

Touching a desiccant packet is just fine. Loose desiccant crystals, not so much. Think about it, foods and powders touch it all the time in pharmaceutical packaging. I have a packet in the jar with my ground up cubes and it's perfect.
