Description

*Notice: Only Available To Customers Within Oklahoma At This Time*

Dried mushrooms are a great shelf stable pantry item. Can be stored for up to 18 months, and quickly rehydrated before use for a great source of protein and flavor.

Nutrition: While dried oyster mushrooms may have less protein and iron than the oysters of the sea, they also have way less calories, sodium, cholesterol, carbohydrates and fat. Additionally, 100 grams of reconstituted oyster mushrooms are a great source of dietary fiber (9% RDA*), Vitamins B2 (21% RDA) and B3 (25% RDA), and copper, phosphorous and potassium (12% RDA each). Fiber aids with digestion, B Vitamins convert food into energy, copper produces red blood cells, phosphorous helps build strong bones (just like calcium!), and potassium lowers blood pressure.

Directions: Place in a bowl with enough room to expand 4 times as large with enough water to cover. Let stand minimum 15 minutes and up to 2 hours. Drain and squeeze to remove excess water; but remember this water is great to use in cooking especially soups or beneficial for watering plants.
