Maitake (Dried) - 1LB

Rich, woodsy aroma with layered, petal-like texture; ideal for rehydrating in soups (like ramen) and savory broths. Culinary: Known as “Hen of the Woods,” maitake’s depth of flavor comes through after drying – it creates a hearty, almostmeaty broth. Great in Japanese or Italian cuisine (think noodle soups or risotto). Medicinal notes: Maitake is also studied for its health benefits; it contains beta-glucans thought to support the immune system. (For chefs, highlighting that it’s both tasty and healthful can be a bonus selling point.)
