Fresh hon-shimeji mushrooms are organically cultivated in pristine conditions and are available year-round. Delicate in appearance, with thin stems about 2 to 3 inches long and brown, nickel-sized caps, hon-shimeji grows in small clusters and should be separated for cooking. Chefs love these little mushrooms for their nutty, versatile flavor and crunchy texture. Both caps and stems are edible, so they can be tossed whole into a sauté pan with vegetables. Stir-fry them with butter or duck fat for delectable results and try soy-based sauces or demi-glace reductions for a fine finish. Their mild, nutty flavor is wonderful when paired with seafood or grilled meats; the hon-shimeji is a versatile mushroom that is fun to cook.

Our cultivated exotic mushrooms come from pristine, controlled conditions and seldom need cleaning. If they do require minimal cleaning, use a light hand. Do not rinse mushrooms in water, as this can destroy their texture; they absorb moisture. Instead, use a dry brush, cloth, or lightly moistened paper towel to remove any unwanted particles. Simply trim the bottoms, and they are ready for use in your favorite recipes.

Store mushrooms in the refrigerator in their original packaging. Once opened, they are best stored in a paper bag, which absorbs moisture, rather than sealed in a plastic storage container.

D'Artagnan offers a variety of wild and cultivated fresh mushrooms and truffles year round. For wild mushrooms, we partner with foragers and follow the seasons around the world. In addition, expert cultivators grow organic mushrooms for us in pristine and optimal conditions. We also preserve the flavors of the season with our dried mushroom offerings.

Our truffles are foraged seasonally in France and Italy, and when those are done we source farmed truffles from Australia, which lengthens the season for these fragrant delicacies.
