Lion’s Mane Mushrooms
Lion’s Mane Mushrooms are a white, shaggy specialty mushroom, found in specialty stores along with Oyster and Shiitake. Prominent in Eastern Asia, they are used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for insomnia.
We like this dish with many meals, such as Port Basted Rotisserie Chicken or Rotisserie Prime Rib.
Lion’s Mane Mushrooms
We prefer the meatier and flavourful specialty mushrooms to the household white. The mushrooms pick up the flavors they are cooked in. We much prefer Tamari compared to Soy Sauce. Tamari is less salty with a richer umami flavor while Soy is sharper with more of a bite.
