Description
Dried Whole Shiitake Mushrooms - 100 g (>4 cm)
Dried shiitake mushrooms are a classic ingredient in East Asian cuisine and have been used for many generations to enrich dishes with a deep, complex flavour profile. The mushrooms are sold in whole pieces, larger than 4 cm, which provides a good and meaty texture after rehydration. Before use, place the mushrooms in a heatproof bowl, cover with boiling water, and steep for approximately 20 minutes until they are soft and juicy. Alternatively, they can be soaked in lukewarm water for 15 minutes, preferably twice, to achieve the best result. Remove the stem before cooking, as it is tough and not suitable for eating. Once rehydrated, the mushrooms can be used in a wide range of dishes such as soups, noodle broths, stir-fries, rice dishes, stocks, vegetable dishes, and as fillings in dumplings or spring rolls. The taste is intense and umami-rich with nutty and slightly earthy notes that add an extra dimension to any dish. The texture after cooking is soft and juicy with a slightly meaty sensation, making the mushrooms a popular choice in vegetarian and vegan dishes. The drying process concentrates the mushrooms' natural aromas and releases guanylate, a natural flavour enhancer that occurs during drying and rehydration. The product is packaged in a sealed 100g bag and should be stored cool and dry, protected from direct sunlight. To maintain quality, storage in an airtight container after opening is recommended. Dried shiitake mushrooms are an excellent choice for food enthusiasts who wish to work with authentic Asian ingredients, and are suitable for everyday meals as well as more advanced cooking. The product contains sulphur dioxide (E220) as an additive and is suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets.
