Native to East Asia, Shiitake mushrooms range in colors from amber to paper bag-brown. Besides, each mushroom has a wide, umbrella shape with a characteristic curled rim. When cooked, shiitakes release a garlic-pine aroma and have a rich, earthy, umami flavor that makes any dish you make with them memorably scrumptious! In addition to their culinary uses, these unique mushrooms have long been used for medicinal purposes in both raw and dried form. For one, they are rich in vitamins B2, B12 and vitamin D. Besides, they are a source of the compound Lentinan, which is being evaluated as an anti-cancer drug. Just remember that the Shiitakes you got from the store and couldn’t wait to eat should be cooked prior to digging in. So, you’d have to be a little bit patient.
