Dried shiitake mushrooms are such an important player in Japanese cuisine because they add so much umami. Takehisa’s Donko Dried Shiitake are some of the best because they are grown slowly over the winter, which amplifies their earthy umami, flavor and aroma.
These make delicious dashi, boiled dishes and bases for soup. They’re also really great for Chinese recipes because of their thick texture. Secret tip: they’re perfect to eat after they have been rehydrated - so don’t throw them away!
Store in a cool, dry, dark place.

This is one of those seasonal products that we are so excited to get, plus it is made for only a short time, so what we have is what we have for this season.
I have never tasted a shiro (white) miso that was this fresh. Odd to say for a fermented product, but completely true, since it has a nice pleasant tanginess, instead of being just sweet. Since Nomura-san uses different koji for each of his 3 misos and his shoyu, you can really taste that this miso was made with intense koji love. It is one of the most delicate white miso I have ever tried. It is sweet, without being sweet and salty without being salty, but what really stands of is the floral koji flavor. Use where you would typically use white miso in recipes, like miso soup.
Keep refrigerated.
Ingredients: rice, soybean, salt
Shipping Notes: all orders that include miso will be shipped via Priority Mail or faster. The miso is shipped with a cold pack to keep it cool during shipping. It is fine if the cold pack melts in transit, just place the miso in the refrigerator upon arrival.
