How to Store Your Spices?
Keep them out of the sun and heat.

After opening the seal, make sure to inspect it again. Humidity can cause spoilage.

How To
How to Cut Shiitake Mushrooms
So the shiitakes have been doing well. They are fine. How do we cut them? We've tried everything. Even the scissors. But they keep slipping out of our hands. What is the deal?
Well, there's a trick for that. Put a rubber band around your mushroom stem and twist it tight. This will ensure that you don't fall and break your wrists.
You might think that it seems too simple. It is. However, it is also very efficient.
The rubber band makes stems slippery, making them feel more natural when picked up. The stem can be held securely.
Try it now. You will be amazed at the ease with which you can now cut mushrooms.
