How To

How to Cut Shiitake Mushrooms

The shiitakes are doing well. There's nothing wrong with them. They are fine. But how can we make them cut without hurting ourselves? We have tried every method, including using scissors. But they just keep slipping from our hands. What's going on here?

Well, there's a trick for that. To make the mushroom stem stick out, wrap a rubber band around it and twist it tightly. You won't slip, and you won't be cut.

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

The rubber band makes your stem slippery and it feels very natural when you pick it it up. Plus, it doesn't hurt to hold the stem tightly.

You can now try it. It will be so much easier to cut mushrooms than ever before.
