Dried Shiitake Mushrooms (Sliced)



Prices
Shiitake (Lentinus Edodes) is often called a wild mushroom, however it is only found cultivated. The origin of this mushroom is debated. Either the Chinese or the Japanese were the first to cultivate shiitake over 1200 years ago. Dried shiitake caps are dark brown on top, with tan gills underneath. The rim of the dried shiitakes curls down toward the stem. Shiitakes have a meaty flesh and a full bodied, bosky flavor. Shiitakes may also be referred to as Chinese black mushrooms or forest mushrooms.
Basic Preparations: Rinse product in cold running tap water to remove any possible debris. To reconstitute, place desired amount into a bowl, cover with boiling water, and let soak for 15-20 minutes before draining. Or, add directly to recipe that will cook for at least 20 minutes. General rule, 1 oz. dry reconstitutes to 3-4 oz.

High quality dried mushrooms, nicely packaged, not broken or "dusty." They are a bit tough, even when well-cooked, but are great to throw into soups for added flavor and texture.Nancy, Berne, NY

Used this in my beef barley soup in the crockpot. Not sure if dried mushrooms are for me yet. Fresh may still be the key.Kay, Groton, SD
