How To
How to cut Shiitake Mushrooms
The shiitakes grow well. There's nothing wrong with them. But how do they be cut? We've tried everything. Even the scissors. They keep falling out of our hands. What's going on here?
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. Well, it is. But it's also very effective.
Because the rubber band makes the stem slippery it is easy to pick it up. It doesn't hurt to keep the stem in place.
Do it! It's so easy to chop mushrooms now.
