Tekoa Farms’ Select Dried Mushrooms for Soup brings a deep, woodsy flavor straight from the hills of the Judean region to your kitchen. This blend includes whole dried mushrooms – beautifully shaped, firm, and aromatic – ideal for enriching soups, stews, sauces, risottos, or broths. Once soaked, the mushrooms release a savory and earthy richness that immediately elevates the simplest of dishes.
These mushrooms are grown and dried by Tekoa Farms, a family run agricultural village founded in 1986 in the community of Tekoa, just outside Jerusalem. This region’s clean air, high elevation, and bright desert sun give their produce a character you can taste. Tekoa Farms has spent decades refining traditional growing methods and modern dehydration techniques that preserve flavor and natural nutrients. Their facility is known for careful hand selection of mushrooms before drying, resulting in a mix that rehydrates beautifully without becoming mushy.
Tekoa Farms began as a small collective of growers who wanted to develop specialty crops in Israel’s dry mountain climate. Over time, their mushroom cultivation became a signature craft. Today their dried mixes are sold throughout Israel and used by home cooks and professional chefs looking for ingredient purity and consistency. Everything they produce reflects the land they farm: rugged terrain, mineral rich soil, and a commitment to mindful agriculture.
Because these mushrooms are dried at low temperatures, they retain both aroma and color. Soak them in warm water for about 20–30 minutes, then add both the mushrooms and strained soaking liquid to deepen the flavor of any recipe. This mix works especially well for hearty vegetable soups, noodle bowls, miso based broths, gravies, and rice dishes.
