I've been using this brand of shiitake mushrooms several years now, and I'm very pleased with this product. You have to rinse well before soaking or boiling to get rid of dried particles and dirt etc. I usually boil them to quickly rehydrate and soften. If I have time I sometimes just let them soak in warm water to hydrate. I use shiitake mushrooms in so many dishes, stir fries, soups, veggie burgers. Flavor and texture are always great. You get various sizes shiitake in this pack, which is good. I sometimes only cook with the smaller ones or sometimes with the larger ones. I love it overall.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent flavor and texture for dehydrated mushrooms. Very similar to fresh.
The media could not be loaded. I grew shiitake mushrooms for a couple of year, and these dehydrated mushrooms are as close to fresh as you can get once they are hydrated. First of all 16 oz. of dehydrated mushrooms is a lot of mushrooms. Shiitake mushrooms are a very meaty mushroom similar to a portabello mushroom, and are best when cooked. The mushrooms in this package do include the stems. When growing these mushroom, I always removed the stems as they are very tough. I froze the stems in baggies to be used to add flavor and richness to broths. Since these mushrooms include the stems, it may be best to cut them out before hydration. You can cut them out with a scissors and save them for broth. They will hydrate and add flavor to your broth when you simmer the bones. I wouldn't use the stems in stews or soups as they are not edible and would be difficult to pick out.As for hydrating these mushrooms, I would recommend soaking them in cool water, after rinsing, for at least 24 hours to get the best flavor. You can hydrate them in hot water for less time, but the flavor and texture won't be quite as good. The soaking water smells wonderful and is good to use as a mushroom broth. It also adds a lot of flavor to broths and gravies. The mushroom broth (soaking water) can be frozen in containers for later use. To use these mushrooms after soaking they should to be cooked either by sautéing them or adding them to a recipe. I like them best when sliced and sautéed after they have been hydrated.I used these mushrooms tonight, and sautéed them with onions and portabellas to go with steak. These mushrooms were very similar to the portabellas in flavor and texture, and the taste exactly very close to the fresh shiitake mushrooms I used to grow. I would recommend these mushrooms as long as you dehydrate them long enough and remove the tough stems. Since shiitake mushrooms are very dense, they take much longer to hydrate than most dehydrated foods. In my opinion, nothing beats fresh, but these mushrooms are a very good alternative when fresh is not available.I hope this review was helpful for you.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great flavor, some a bit chewy
I buy dried porcini and chanterelles all of the time, but this was a first. The shiitake at my grocery stores are not very fresh or flavorful, and I only hit the Asian store periodically. These are great for the price. I rehydrated them for 3 hours, first a low boil, then a low simmer, then I let them cool down. Cutting out the stems was cumbersome, but I don't like them because they're usually tough. I used these sliced up in a soup, and some had the perfect texture, but some were chewy. Next time, I might rehydrate them overnight. The flavor is excellent!
5.0 out of 5 stars dried mushrooms last indefinitely, soak well, follow directions in product description
I keep dried mushrooms in my pantry. I dont use them all the time, but just enough to warrant my purchasing a huge 5 lb bag-- best price per ounce too. Worry about them going bad? Nah, dried mushrooms last indefinitely. A lot of foods are like that. Store them well, and they are going to be totally fine for years to come. Good prepper food. No shortage of info to be found regarding this. That being said, my bag has a best by date of Feb 2025-- couple years out. Best by is really only an guarantee of freshness, taste, and nutritional value. After that, it is possible for there to be a decrease in quality, etc, but it depends on the food. Dried mushrooms are not affected by time so much.Any dried vegetable or fruit wont rehydrate to perfection. Soaking is very important, not just tossing in when cooking (ie, dont think that they have been "soaked" because they were added to a long simmer soup). I find it best to soak before actual cooking or other uses. Stems take way longer to soften up, so it may be best to remove those as soak separately.I like shiitake for its mild flavor and high nutrient value. I ay use fresh white cap or portabello mushrooms then add in some dried (well, soaked) shiitake to give added boost.Huge bag. Like size of a bed pillow. I dont store them in any fancy complicated way. I take out what I think I will use over the course of a month, then just tape the bag closed and store in cool dark area. If I am motivated, I may divide these up into jars, baggies, or mylar bags just for ease of storing. If not, the mushrooms are fine in the bag they came in.
better than expected

I got lucky ;) ... Soaked the shrooms in a well salted water, which I used for cooking. Shrooms did absorb water well after 2 days and during 20min in Instant Pot on Hi Pressure, with some celery, carrots, bay leaf, spices. Came out good. Soft heads / fruiting bodies, the stems a bit hard. Next time will cook 10min longer to check the outcome again. Tasty shrooms.
Very yummy
These mushroom are small but very aromatic and taste very good when stir fried with oyster sauce. You might find it a bit chewy if you soak it only for a couple of hours, soak it overnight will make it very soft to bit, don't throw the soaking water, heat it up and add a teaspoon of miso paste and will turn it into a very tasty miso soup! I'm very pleased with these dry mushroom.
Delicious
These taste amazing. They do seem expensive but so many fit in the package that I would say it’s close to the price of fresh mushrooms at this point, so worth it.
Taste great
I like the taste better than fresh mushrooms, especially in fried rice.
Great value
Maybe not the prettiest shiitake I’ve ever seen but price is right and for half of kilogram it’s definitely a go.Posted picture to compare with more “fancy brand”, they taste exactly same just look better….in soups and most meals u can’t see them anyway.
