These mushrooms grow in dense clusters of small, pure white, globular caps on long, thin stems. In addition to their taste, they are highly prized for their practicality: their uniform size allows for perfect control when plating and ensures visual consistency on the plate. Le Delas' rigorous selection process guarantees firm, spotless mushrooms, essential for enhancing your most refined culinary creations.
Culinary uses, preparation and storage
White Shimeji mushrooms have many uses in hot cooking, as their texture remains firm even after prolonged exposure to heat.
► Fusion cuisine and broths: They are the ideal accompaniment to ramen or pho-style broths, where they infuse while retaining their crunch. They are perfect in vegetable or seafood stir-fries.
► Refined garnishes: Quickly sautéed in butter or olive oil with a pinch of fleur de sel, they elegantly accompany a fillet of white fish or white meat. Their immaculate colour creates a striking contrast on dark or coloured plates.
► Preparation: Shimeji mushrooms should not be eaten raw. Simply cut off the base of the cluster (the substrate) to release the mushrooms. A quick brush or a quick rinse under running water is sufficient, as they absorb very little liquid.
► Storage: Must be stored in a cool place between +2°C and +6°C. To preserve their freshness and colour, leave them in their original packaging, which ensures optimal humidity control.
