Health Benefits of the SHIITAKE MUSHROOM Long a symbol of longevity in Asia because of their health-promoting properties, More recently, their rich, smoky flavor has endeared them to American taste buds. These exotic hearty mushrooms can now be found in supermarket shelves across the U.S. throughout the year. Like other mushrooms, these specialty mushrooms are as mysteriously unique as they are delicious. While often thought of as a vegetable and prepared like one, mushrooms are actually a fungus, a special type of living organism that has no roots, leaves, flowers or seeds.

Really good mushrooms. Didn't expect them to be so good!
Highly recommend. Soak in hot water for a few hours and cut stems where they meet the caps, and they will not be tough or rubbery for you.Good flavor and texture, exceeded expectations. Spent a long time researching on amazon which shiitakes to get--glad to have gotten these.Expensive, so it's a splurge if you are using in high volume, but if you are a home cook and using the sparingly as part of a dish (slice them), they do go far and are worth it as they will very much elevate a dish!

Tasty
Great for hot and sour soup. I live in a rural area and it's hard to find specialty products like this in our stores so online ordering was convenient.

Wonderful product!!
The mushrooms are in perfect condition, and very regular in size. Moreover, they were packed with very great care. The quality and quantity were very favorable considering the reasonable price.

Great for the price, but must be cleaned well before use.
These aren't the highest quality I've had, but they are certified organic and the price is okay so I can't complain. Just be sure you leave enough time to check each one when you're cooking them because some might need a bit more cleaning than others.

Sooo good
First off, I like shiitakes (why would you buy a whole pound of something you don’t know if you like it yet ~ try some somewhere else first before writing a bad review). And secondly, I’ve used fresh shiitakes a lot, but they often need a little frying or seasoning to bring out the flavor. Magically, the drying process also brings out the flavor, so these are chock full of it! I use these regularly in soup, and they are already on my “to buy again” list.

Will buy again
Since these are dried mushrooms, they need to be soaked in hot water to swell up. Excellent quality and flavor. Sizes are big enough for cutting slices. Will buy again.

My new addiction !
I had shitake mushrooms for the first time at Taco Deli . I needed more ! I was so happy I found some organic shitake mushrooms at Amazon . Its a new kick to my scrambled eggs ! Hydrate them in some broth or water and they will be ready to cook deliciously in a few days . I highly recommended for mushroom eaters .
