Dried Maitake Mushrooms

Maitake Mushrooms, also known as Hen of the Woods or Grifola frondosa, dried and ready to be reconstituted to add to soups, stews and sautés. These mushrooms add a deep umami an earthy flavor to any dish, have an almost meaty texture when rehydrated, and are very nutrient-dense.

To use, rinse the mushrooms with water and then let soak in a bowl completely covered for at least 1 hour prior to use, or add directly into soups and stews that will be boiling for one hour or longer. You can use the rehydrated mushrooms and the water they soak in to add an extra punch of flavor!
