QING Shiitake Mushroom Dry A-Grade, 1 kg, for ramen, stir-fries and dashi. Single 1 kg pack.
Shiitake is an edible mushroom native to East Asia and mainland Southeast Asia; written records of its cultivation date back to 1209 in Song dynasty China. QING A-grade dried shiitake have thick caps and an intense, smoky, savoury flavour that is stronger than fresh. Rinse and soak the mushrooms in cold water for several hours or overnight, or in warm water for about 30 minutes, then trim the tough stems. Slice the caps for ramen, stir-fries, hot pot, braised dishes, dumpling fillings and vegetarian dishes. Strain the soaking liquid and use it as a mushroom stock for soups and sauces. Keep the dried mushrooms in an airtight bag in a cool, dry place, and refrigerate any soaked mushrooms you have not cooked.
