[Product Description]

Ingredients: Shiitake mushrooms (log-grown) [Nutritional Information] (per 100g): Energy 182 kcal, Carbohydrates 63.4g, Sugars 22.4g, Dietary Fiber 41.0g, Protein 19.3g, Fat 3.7g, Salt Equivalent 0.02g Product Description: This product is reprocessed dried shiitake mushrooms that were originally dried in a round shape. Because it retains the flavor of the whole mushroom, it has a richer taste compared to sliced products where the flavor has been lost during cutting. To enjoy the delicious flavor of dried shiitake, rinse briefly in water to remove dust and impurities. Place the water and dried shiitake in a bowl or container that is not too large, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Depending on the thickness and size of the mushrooms, the rehydration time may vary, but as a guideline, until they become tender. (Please cook after rehydration.) This product is reprocessed dried shiitake mushrooms that were originally dried in a round shape. It retains the flavor of the whole mushroom, resulting in a richer taste than sliced products where the flavor has been lost. There are no foreign objects, and the mushrooms are cut into pieces approximately 3mm wide and 10-40mm long. Because they are press-cut, they are compact, but they will swell to the size and thickness of regular sliced shiitake mushrooms in about 30 minutes. Izu is the birthplace of shiitake cultivation; historical documents state that in Kanpō 1 (1741), Seisuke Ishiwata of Izu Amagi began the first artificial cultivation of shiitake in Japan. Since then, cultivation has spread throughout Oita, Shikoku, and across the country through his colleagues, descendants, and disciples. Izu, a high-quality shiitake producing region, has long been known for its premium shiitake. This is because the land is suitable for cultivation, as evidenced by its origin. Mount Amagi receives about 2,500mm of rain annually, and the surrounding mountains contain ample moisture necessary for shiitake cultivation. The peninsula is surrounded by warm seas, creating humid air, and broadleaf trees grow easily, all contributing to an ideal environment. The log-grown shiitake cultivated in this favorable environment is of very high quality and has received numerous awards, including the Prime Minister's Award at the National Dried Shiitake Competition (2015, 63rd) and the highest award at the Zen-Noh Dried Shiitake Competition, with a total of 126 awards at both competitions (as announced by the Shizuoka Prefecture Mushroom Center Promotion Council). Storage Method: Please keep in a cool, dark place, avoiding direct sunlight, high temperatures, and humidity.
