Methods/steps
- Soak the porcini in a deep bowl with 4 C. warm water for 30 minutes or until soft. Massage and stir several times to dislodge any silt. Scoop out and and squeeze dry the porcini. Chop.
- Reserve 1 C. mushroom liquid for the recipe. Save the rest for other recipes, leaving any silt in the bottom of the bowl.
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Melt the butter over medium heat in a large skillet. Add the onion and celery, sprinkle with salt, and saute 5 minutes or until soft. Add the rosemary, thyme, marjoram and pepper. Saute another couple of minutes.
- Add the liquids and chopped porcini. Raise heat to high and boil 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Stir together the bread cubes, vegetable and liquid, parsley and pecans in large mixing bowl.
- Adjust seasonings.
- Spread evenly into a buttered 9x13" baking dish. Bake 45 minutes or until firm and slightly crusty.
