SHITAKE MUSHROOMS- GENERAL INFORMATION

    Many  markets stock  shitake mushrooms, fresh or dried.

Fresh
  shitake  mushrooms  are   intensely   flavorful  and

typically
high-priced.  Dried shitake mushrooms have  highly

concentrated
 calories  and minerals by weight,  but because

of
 their  strong  flavor  they   are  used  in much smaller

quantities.
 They must soak before cooking.
