Dried Maitake Mushrooms 2 Ounce

Maitake mushrooms form a tan to gray cluster of "petals" or fronds on a central stalk. Growing in the wild at the base of oak trees, they resemble a hen with ruffled feathers, and are often known as "hen of the woods." Maitake mushrooms add a distinctively rich flavor to egg dishes, tempura, pasta sauces, soups and stews. Similar to shiitake mushrooms, they are delicious paired with chicken.
