Shiitake Mushrooms (Dried)

By Frank Hoffman on June 20, 2017 in Mushroom Pantry

Shiitake mushrooms (dried) have a fairly long shelf-life, which makes them very handy for use in stir-fries and soups. See more about them below.

More About Shiitake Mushrooms (Dried)

When reconstituted in water, shiitake mushrooms are medium to strong tasting mushrooms with a distinctive taste and a chewy texture. We purchase these dry shiitake mushrooms from the co-op in one pound packages (D’Allasandro) because of their convenience and storability. They are also available from other companies online.

Since they reconstitute very quickly, we enjoy them in quickie soups, stir-fries, and steamed vegetable dishes. See nutritional charts below for dry and cooked shiitake mushrooms.
