VIGOROUS MOUNTAINSOrganic Shiitake Mushrooms Sliced, Great Size Fresh Texture Rehydrate Quickly, Dried Shiitake Mushrooms for Cooking Soups/Ramen/Pasta and Risotto, All Natural Vegan (8Oz)USDA Organic

I am VERY IMPRESSED with the Quality of these Mushrooms!!!!! I received my Order from Amazon in a Large Box 📦 😀 (which was VERY WELL DONE by them) which prevented any breakage during Shipping 🚢. When I opened the box, I was VERY impressed with the Size of the Mushrooms. And I had a feeling they would be GREAT. I was Wrong: They were FANTASTIC!!!!! I opened the the sturdy plastic pouch & placed them in a bowl 🥣 & poured hot water over them. They are Succulent, Tender & very Flavorful. And they taste as good as fresh!!!! They're better than fresh because you'll want to use the soaking water. No. Sand. No. Grit. It's been a long time since I wrote a Review for anything, but I felt compelled to. It's a lot of money 💰 for dried mushrooms, but they're well worth it. The package will cover at least 12 bowls of Ramen & could go farther. But they're SO wonderful you'll probably dream about them!!!! Definitely gonna reorder them.

Considering these are available in your pantry for an extended time, makes them always available vs fresh. But it's hard to beat fresh. I heard if you leave them soaking overnight in cold water it helps with texture and I'm going to give that a try.

Never have to buy fresh again. These are so clean, easy to hydrate, sauté well, and help Mr to add mushrooms more frequently into my diet. I enjoy them and they’re so healthy.

These VIGOROUS MOUNTAINS organic shiitake slices are a great solution if you, like me, are tired of finding sad, slimy mushrooms in the fridge. Just toss a handful into soup or ramen, and they rehydrate nicely — no food waste, no guilt!They do take a little time to soften, so plan ahead (or add them early in cooking), but the flavor is rich and earthy. The texture isn’t quite the same as fresh mushrooms — a bit chewier — but not in a bad way. Honestly, for the price and convenience, it’s a worthy trade-off.A solid addition to your pantry if you want to boost your meals without boosting your grocery bill (or your compost bin)!

High quality product

Great hydration.

Bought these for soups. You get quite a lot for the money and the mushrooms are in slices, not crushed pieces. Well packaged and once rehydrated, very good flavor and texture. Will definitely use again.

Huge bag! Great quality! I make a lot of soup and these are perfect! Highly recommend!
