Shiitake
A mainstay in East Asian cuisines, the versatile, umami-rich Shiitake mushroom is enjoyed both fresh and dried. Mycopia got its start growing Shiitake mushrooms and selling them fresh to restaurants in the burgeoning California cuisine food scene.
Before Mycopia, many chefs we worked with had never seen Shiitakes in their fresh form before. Dried Shiitakes are prized for their concentrated, deep flavors and are popularly used in broths and braises. Fresh Shiitake mushrooms have a milder, more buttery taste and a softer, more tender texture that is well suited to quick, hot cooking techniques.
