Shiitake (Shiitake), dried mushrooms - Orient GOURMET 50g

Product detailed description

Shiitake, also known as edible hardy, is known for its content of vitamins and substances beneficial to health and is therefore a suitable part of a regular diet. It is also a traditional part of Japanese cuisine, especially when preparing sushi. Although fresh shiitake is also edible, dried is preferred due to its better taste. It is precisely in order to preserve the taste and aroma that it is better to store these mushrooms in airtight packaging. In breathable packaging, they quickly lose their distinctive aroma. Shiitake, a mushroom that is called the "elixir of life" in China, is widely used not only as food, but also as medicine. It gives dishes a characteristic Asian flavor, and vegetarians like to use it as a meat substitute. It contains large amounts of vitamin B (B2, B5 and B6), manganese, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, copper and zinc. It is a very good source of fiber, protein, magnesium and vitamin D. Shiitake is filling and contains almost no calories, so it is also used in weight loss diets.
