万能だしに！九州産本格椎茸粉40ｇあらびき【干し椎茸粉末使いこなしレシピ付き】

I am a recipe developer, food blogger, and food photographer. I used Forest-grown Japanese Shiitake Powder in three meals: noodles, fried eggs and rice.
I let the 1 teaspoon of Forest-grown Japanese Shiitake Powder sit in two tablespoons of water about 15 minute before I add it to my noodle soup.
I cooked 1 teaspoon of Forest-grown Japanese Shiitake Powder with butter for my fried eggs and 3 teaspoons of it with olive oil for my rice.
It definitely flavors dishes with a Shiitake taste. One of the best features of this product is there is no salt added so you may salt to taste. My family loves mushrooms, especially shiitakes, and this powder is a great alternative if you do not have fresh mushrooms in your fridge. As you know, mushrooms do not stay fresh more than a couple of days. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, I have limited my grocery store visits; therefore I prefer to purchase products which stay fresh longer. Forest-grown Japanese Shiitake Powder is a great way for me to have natural mushroom taste in my meals.
Conclusion: I would recommend this product. It is good quality and the price is well worth it. I would recommend using more than the suggested amount though. The recommended 1 teaspoon for a meal I increased to 3-4. Other than that, it is a wonderful addition to savory dishes and meals. Give it a try. You will love it!

I confess that I was skeptical about this shiitake powder creating that sought-after umami that elevates the taste of food, but after trying the taste test of comparing to plain mayo, I was converted. This light brown powder doesn’t taste like mushrooms, and I don’t know why that is. Instead, it works to expand the flavor profile of just about any savory food. My risotto has never tasted better. Even though it doesn’t contain salt, it makes food taste saltier, making it perfect for those who want to cut sodium without sacrificing flavor.

It takes about ten minutes in liquid for this powder to reach its full umami potential. (“Umami” is that taste beyond bitter, sweet, sour, and salty that lends “deliciousness” to food.) This powder would be perfect to add to soups, stews, sauces — anything that you want to add a secret ingredient to. Because it does have a color, you’ll probably want to avoid adding it to anything that wouldn’t look good with small brown specks.

夕飯の鶏味噌鍋に味噌鍋の素と一緒にお鍋に入れてみたら
しいたけのだしが出て美味しかった
しいたけの産地も九州なので安心して食べられます

　九州産本格しいたけ粉です。干ししいたけを粉末にしたものです。パウチ式の包装に入っていて保管にも便利です。そのままで使えます。お料理に加えるだけでも、しっかりとしいたけの味がが出てくるので、料理の味付けに便利です。お味噌汁に入れてみましたが、しいたけ風味がバッチリ出ました。あくまで粉なので、完全に溶けるわけで
はなさそうで、白い粉は残るようでした。しいたけの味を簡単に楽しめるので、評価は星５つとしました。薄味に出来るので、減塩などにも役に立つと思います。

I’ve been using Trader Joe’s umami seasoning for some time and it is largely made up of mushroom flavors so I was interesting in trying something without the other flavors. This is in the same ballpark as that, but much purer in terms of the flavor. I used it in soup, eggs, and burgers, but I also tasted it as a raw spice. It has a fresh, moderate mushroom flavor which brings a lot of savory depth to dishes. I was very pleased with the quality it brings to dishes. It does taste like dehydrated, powdered mushrooms, but it also tastes better in some ways because it lacks some of the bitterness or strongly earthy flavors that can come along with using actual mushrooms.

The amount in the packet is quite generous. It’s needs to be measured with a spoon because it doesn’t come with a shaker bottle, but I prefer the zipper plastic bag because I live in an area which is humid in winter and herbs stored in a shaker bottle cake up. This is more airtight.

干したシイタケの戻し汁が手軽に作れるのかな？と思ったがそうではなかった。
それと同等の芳醇なシイタケを期待すると、肩透かしを食う。

多少シイタケの香りがするかな？程度なので、香りを求めて多量に入れるのは注意が必要。

うま味という物を私が分かっていないので、味の変化に気づいていないのかもしれないが
本品を使用した和食で醤油・めんつゆを使用する料理ではれば、確かに美味しくなる。

濡らして使うと威力３倍！とあるが、シェイカーに本品と、水を入れてフリフリしてから
冷蔵庫で数時間放置してみたが、確かにお湯に入れた時よりは味が強く出た。不思議。

少々溶け具合が気になるので、個人的にはティーパックに入れるのがおすすめ。
