I was gifted a bag of this (eG-friendly Amazon.com link)...

If I had to choose between this stuff and high-quality porcini mushrooms, I'd choose the porcini. 

 

But this works in a pinch - it adds a little depth and savoriness to the sauce.

 

I know just how you feel.  A Scottish friend sent me a tin of this stuff from the UK, and I've been sneaking it into all kinds of soups and stews.  But in truth I think I'm as much in love with the packaging as I am with the flavor.
