The second most cultivated mushroom in the world which has grown more popular in the US as the general population have embraced ethnic cooking, particularly Asian flavors, and their popularity has only been helped by the growing medical reports that various constituents in shiitake and other Asian mushrooms provide a number of healthy benefits.

The shiitake takes its name from the Japanese words “take”(mushroom) and “shii” (a type of chestnut tree on which these mushrooms are commonly found).

Dried shiitakes have a high percentage of essential amino acids and higher vitamin D content than most foods.
