November – March

Shiitake

$12.00

Rich, smoky and deeply savory with a firm, meaty bite. A favorite with the chefs we grow for. Shiitake is grown November through March, so availability changes with the weather; we'll confirm by text when you order.

Size

Harvested fresh each week, the same harvest we send to Austin restaurants. Pick up at the farm and pay at pick-up. Buying for a kitchen?

Tasting notes

Earthy and smoky with big umami. The caps hold their shape and turn glossy and golden when roasted or seared.

How to cook it
  • Stir-fry: slice thin, sear hot with garlic, ginger and tamari.
  • Ramen and broth: simmer the stems for stock, slice the caps on top.
  • Roasted: toss caps in oil and salt, roast at 425°F until the edges crisp.
