Dried shiitake mushrooms ⋅ Sugimoto Shoten ⋅ 70g

Founded in 1970 in Takachiho-machi, Miyazaki Prefecture, Suigomoto shoten specializes in dried products such as shiitakes, bamboo shoots and dried ferns. The company is guided by the desire to develop ingredients that are safe and easy to use, while guaranteeing the health of consumers. Their cultivation method uses natural, pesticide-free woods, enabling them to offer certified organic and kosher products.

1. Run the dried mushrooms under cold water to remove any impurities.
2. Place in a bowl and cover generously with lukewarm or cold water (avoid boiling water, which hardens the texture).
3. Soak for 20-30 minutes for quick use, or 2-3 hours (or even overnight in the fridge) for optimal rehydration.
4. Drain mushrooms and squeeze out excess water.
5. Keep the soaking liquid: the resulting broth is rich in aromas. Strain through a fine sieve or gauze, then use as a base for soups, sauces or broths.
6. Cut and cook mushrooms as you would fresh ones (wok, soup, stew...).

Note: the stems of shiitake mushrooms, which are often more fibrous, can be set aside to flavour a broth.

Store away from light, heat and moisture.
