Dried Shiitake Mushrooms

This 90 g dried shiitake pack is a smaller-pack option for everyday rice dishes, soups and braises.

Flavour and texture

Dried shiitake has a rounded, savoury flavour with a woodsy mushroom aroma. Fully rehydrated and cooked caps are tender with a satisfying chew. Slice them into chicken rice or braised tofu so the mushroom flavour becomes part of the dish. For broad whole caps to stuff or braise, compare Large Flower Shiitake.

This Xianyitang pack contains dried shiitake mushroom, manufactured under an ISO 9001:2015-certified quality management system. Before use, rinse thoroughly and soak in warm water for 20–30 minutes until fully rehydrated; always cook shiitake mushrooms thoroughly before serving. The soaking liquid can be strained carefully and added to soups for extra flavour — discard any gritty sediment at the bottom. Do not leave soaked mushrooms at room temperature for extended periods.

Typical uses: Cantonese soups and broths, braised pork and chicken dishes, stir-fries, fried rice, steamed dishes, soup mixes.
