Place the dried porcini mushrooms in a small heatproof bowl and pour the boiling water over them. Let soak for 15 minutes, until softened. Lift the mushrooms out, roughly chop them, and reserve the soaking liquid. Pour the soaking liquid through a fine-mesh strainer or coffee filter to remove any grit, and set aside.
