Drying Foraged Mushrooms on the Road
    #26906389 - 08/29/20 05:47 PM (3 years, 4 months ago)

Hey guys! Hoping to get some opinions, options and tricks for drying wild mushrooms while on the road and traveling.

I am going on a trip to the PNW for a week. I plan to bring tons of brown paper bags, a  artic cooler and separate cooler with ice. But with me being gone so long, I know I will have to dry most of them or they will go bad by the time I'm home.

The only option I have found is finding an RV park, and using the electricity to run the dehydrators over night and the day.

If anybody has any tips, or any advice at all I would love to hear it! Thank you.

Make a bowl of aluminum foil on your dashboard with cracked for air circulation

I actually have a small "herbarium" on my dash....
I wouldnt dry actives that way due to possible potency loss but sitting on a hot dash in summer will dry them within an hour usually.

A bowl of aluminum foil on the dashboard, that's awesome and so simple. Thank you for that! I'm glad to hear it works good also!

I'm hunting for edible gourmet and medicinal mushrooms, I have done my research on actives out there as well and would love to find some!

That is true. I am going the beginning of October. So I've been planning and preparing for a bit now. Thank you!
