Japanese, Dried Shiitake Mushrooms, 40g
These slender, dried shiitake strips offer a rich, savoury depth and meaty texture that define umami elegance. Once rehydrated, they release a clean, earthy aroma and turn tender with satisfying bite—perfect for enriching broths, stir-fries, or grain bowls. Their concentrated flavour enhances both vegetarian and meat-based dishes, adding complexity without heaviness.
How to Use
Soak in warm water for 20–30 minutes until plump, then squeeze and reserve the soaking liquid as umami-rich stock. Stir into miso soup or ramen, add to stir-fried vegetables or toss through risotto, or finely slice for salads or steamed grain bowls.
