Not all mushroom powders are the same. Their contributions to a dish vary greatly. Take porcini powder, which is a beast of flavor and can dominate a dish. Shiitake powder is different, gentler. Think of it this way, adding porcini adds porcini flavor, but adding shiitake adds umami with shiitake flavor. Takehisa’s shiitake powder is wonderful because the mushrooms are grown slowly in the forest during the colder months, which develops intense flavor and umami. We use this wonderful condiment when we want to add an umami depth to a dish. For us the most obvious usage is ramen. Add some to the broth and the umami levels soar. But do not stop there - try it in stir frys, pot roasts, and braises. You can also add some shiitake powder when you pre-salt meats or proteins. The list goes on and on.

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!
