Dried Organic USA Maitake Mushrooms (Hen of the Woods)
Maitake mushrooms form a tan to gray cluster of "petals" or fronds on a central stalk. When growing in the wild at the base of oak trees they resemble a hen with ruffled feathers and are often know as the "Hen of the Woods". Maitake mushrooms add a distinctively rich flavor to egg dishes, tempura, pasta sauces, soups, and stews. Similar to shiitake mushrooms they are delicious paired with chicken. These organic Maitake mushrooms were grown, harvested, and dried in the USA.

I pressure cooked these with a chicken carcass for 5 minutes. These shrooms were perfect and had a texture kind of like a meaty substance. Organic - USA grown. Can't get any better.
Dried Organic USA Maitake Mushrooms (Hen of the Woods)
These mushrooms are amazing. They smell so good. I am happy to be using them not only in tinctures but in my cooking as well because well they just are amazing.
The orgaic dried maitake mushrooms are so rich in umami flavour. I use them to make miso broth and other recipes. Service is excellent from the team at Forest Mushrooms.
Nice texture, like chicken soft, and perfect flavor, not overpowering. I just used it when making quinoa, makes the dish tasty.
