What is Shiitakecha?

Shiitakecha is unique Japanese traditional, flavorful powder drink which is made with dried shiitake mushroom.

We Japanese drink it as tea drink (Shiitake-cha (tea)), but it is full of shiitake umami (guanylic acid) and has salty taste, so we also use it as a seasoning for cooking.

(Thanks to rich umami, Shiitakecha is also effective for salt reduction.) 

 

How to use Shiitakecha as seasoning

The simplest way is using Shiitakecha instead of salt. You can add saltiness and umami.

 

Dried shittake is used in Japanese cuisines as one of the ingredients needed to make dashi (Japanese soup stock). But the process of extracting dried shiitake dashi takes time and care.

Since Shiitakecha contains salt and umami from shiitake, you can substitute Shiitakecha for salt or dried shiitake dashi.

 

We will describe easy cooking recipe below.
