We preserve our mushrooms by drying them. All you need to do is rehydrate the mushrooms by soaking them in hot water for 20 minutes and then use them in a recipe of your choice. Don’t throw away the water, it makes a really tasty base for stock or a sauce – we love to use it when making a risotto.
Stuck for an idea for a Birthday or Christmas present for the person who has everything? Or do you want to have a go yourself?
We have developed our blocks so that you can grow your own Shiitake mushrooms. All you need is a tray on which to stand the block, some water and a little tender, loving care. It only takes about three weeks from start to finish. Both adults and children alike find it fascinating just watching the mushrooms grow!
