About This Mushroom

Description

Our log-grown shiitake mushrooms are the heart of Shinto Shrooms. With a deep, earthy umami flavor and a meaty texture, they elevate everything from miso soup to risotto. Cultivated on hardwood logs in the natural forest environment of our Hudson Valley farm, they’re nutrient-rich, sustainable, and full of flavor.

The word Shiitake comes from the Japanese “shii,” or “oak,” and “take,” or “mushroom.” Our Shiitake mushrooms are locally grown on oak logs in their natural environment. By activating natural oak tree defenses, complex molecular interactions occur that produce a more flavorful, robust, and natural Shiitake mushroom. It doesn’t get any more organic, local, or premium than that.
