Shiitakes Happen In Our Home!

It has been a number of years now that Pete has grown Shiitake mushrooms... at first I wondered if this was just a fun phase or what... but they are really yummy AND, that is coming from a person who has never liked mushrooms! (well, except for the unhealthy, battered and deep fried ones!)

This was a great year for mushrooms to grow... Pete had the extra time and was able to do quite a bit of log soaking... this is the result of one of those soakings! WOW!!


After picking, they are cleaned (brushed off with a soft brush)... 


And then cut up and put onto the trays for dehydrating to be stored for later use!
                               I will be looking for some delicious recipes to make this winter!
