Product Overview

Shiitake mushrooms have an unmatched umami flavour that will transform any dish you put them in. More importantly, they are incredibly rich in nutritional value and potential health benefits.

Shiitake mushrooms have one of the highest amounts of natural copper and are an excellent source of selenium, helping to support your immune system, blood vessels and bones. They are also low in calories but contain a good amount of fibre in addition to some B vitamins and minerals.

They also contain eritadenine, a compound known to reduce cholesterol levels; and are high in polysaccharides that can protect against cell damage and have anti-inflammatory properties. 

These dried Organic Shiitake Mushrooms are perfect for adding to savoury dishes. Easy to prepare, they can simply be soaked in either warm water or milk for 20 minutes to soften, then add to your recipe. 

Don’t discard the water or milk used to soak the mushroom, why not add the flavoured liquid to your meal prep? Full of goodness and flavour, use it to create an ultra-tasty broth or a delicious and appetising mushroom flavoured sauce.

Perfect in a stroganoff, these smoky, intensely flavoured mushrooms are an ideal ingredient to enhance the flavours of the herbs and spices. Versatile to use, add them to a noodle broth or perhaps a vegetable stir fry. They are great in rice dishes as well as crispy spring rolls.
