agree  Petr Kedzior: although "is the best mushroom the forest has on offer" is arguable...

king bolete sauce

Lately, italian dried porcini (their name for hříbky) have become a common occurence in US markets. (I am not sure about Britain) You may consider calling it "Porcini sauce" - that sounds pretty good.
