Dried Tea Tree Mushroom

Tea tree mushrooms are one of the star ingredients in the northern Chinese dish, braised chicken with mushrooms. When cooked, the mushrooms have a firm and meaty texture.

Tea tree mushrooms are also known as willow mushrooms or velvet pioppini. The mushrooms have an intensely woody and earthy flavour, that gives big umami depth to stir fries and braised meat dishes.

Before use, rinse the fried mushrooms well and cut off any roots. Rehydrate in water before adding to stir fries. You can add them directly to stews, soups or hot pots near the beginning of cooking, and they’ll impart their flavour to the whole dish while they rehydrate.

Ingredients: dried tea tree mushroom. Contains sulphites.
