Description
The Shiitake Mushroom is renowned for both its culinary and medicinal properties. It’s often called the “Elixir of Life” and is also known as the “fragrant mushroom”. Large and umbrella shaped, Shiitake Mushrooms grow on the trunks of fallen trees however with progress in technology, these are now grown on artificially created wood logs, created from wood saw dust. Shiitake Mushroom is also excellent as a base for pasta, meat and fish sauces, as well as risottos, stuffing or simply grilled.
