How To

How to cut Shiitake Mushrooms

The shiitakes grow well. There is nothing wrong with them. They are fine. But how can we make them cut without hurting ourselves? We've tried everything, even scissors. We keep losing them. Is there something wrong?

Well, there's a trick for that. Place a rubber band on the stem of the mushroom and twist it tight. You won't slip or cut yourself.

It may sound too simple. It is. But it's also very powerful.

The rubber band makes it slippery so that it feels natural when you pick up the stem. It's a good idea to secure the stem.

Do it! It's so easy to chop mushrooms now.
