Key Product Features

• [Unique specifications] The ferrule at the tip of the shaft (the hard part at the base of the shaft) has been cut off, so you can use it with confidence.
• It is Kosher certified, proving it is free of foreign substances and allergens, and is ISO 22000 certified.
• It is grown on logs from oak trees, which have sweet sap, so it contains about six times the usual amount of guanylic acid, which enhances the umami flavor of other ingredients.
• The stems of shiitake mushrooms contain valuable vegetable chitin and chitosan. These substances are the main components of the stem cell walls. Please chop them up and use them in your cooking, not just for making soup stock.
• It is rich in vitamin D because it is exposed to ultraviolet rays. 49g/100 g
