Fresh mushrooms should be firm, dry to the touch, and free from strong odors. If they become slimy, develop dark spots, or have an off smell, it’s best to discard them.
Yes! Most mushroom stems are edible, though some varieties like shiitake have firmer stems that are better used for stocks, soups, or finely chopped in recipes.
Yes. All of our mushrooms are naturally gluten-free and kosher-friendly, grown without any gluten-containing substrates or additives.
A light rinse or wipe with a damp cloth is usually enough. Avoid soaking them, as mushrooms are porous and can absorb excess water, affecting texture and flavor.
Most mushrooms taste better and are easier to digest when cooked. Cooking also enhances their natural flavors and releases beneficial nutrients.
Keep mushrooms in a paper bag or a breathable container in the refrigerator. Avoid sealing them in airtight plastic, which can trap moisture and speed spoilage.
Fresh mushrooms generally last 5–7 days in the fridge, though some varieties like shiitake can last up to 10 days if stored properly.
We use sustainable and chemical-free growing methods, and while not all varieties are certified organic, they are grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.
Yes, but for best results, sauté or blanch them first. Freezing raw mushrooms can affect their texture once thawed.
Log-grown mushrooms, like our shiitake, grow more slowly in a natural environment, which develops a richer, earthier flavor and firmer texture compared to those grown on artificial mediums.
Our shiitake mushrooms are grown the traditional way—on hardwood logs in a natural outdoor environment. We inoculate oak logs with shiitake spawn, then stack them in a shaded, moist woodland area that mimics their natural habitat. Over several months, the mushrooms slowly draw nutrients from the wood, developing a richer, earthier flavor and firmer texture than shiitake grown on artificial mediums. This slow, sustainable process produces nutrient-rich mushrooms, grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, and bursting with natural flavor.
