How to use Shiitake stems in the tastiest way possible
The most delicious part of Shiitake mushrooms is the stem. Wild monkeys are known as messy eaters of Shiitake, and the way they eat it is to pull the stem off the cap and chew the base of the stem—the most delicious part—and throw away the rest.
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Place the dried Shiitake stems in water for a while and remove any dirt when it becomes soft.
* Step 2
Place the stems in the water mentioned in the ingredients and leave in the fridge overnight.
* Step 3
Strain using a tea-strainer or equivalent, and use in cooking.
* Step 4
Dried Shiitake produced in Japan are pesticide-free, so Shiitake stem dashi will last as long as an opened carton of milk.
