BENEFITS OF SPECIALTY MUSHROOMS
Specialty Mushrooms each have a unique taste and texture. Mushroom lovers will rejoice at these culinary beauties and the mushroom adverse will think twice when they taste how different they are from the more common button and portobello mushrooms.

Mushrooms are a good source of:
• Protein • Fiber • Iron • Potassium • Phosphorus • Selenium
• Calcium • Folic Acid • Vitamins C, D, B1, B3, B5, B12 • Hericenones • Erinacines
Storage: To maintain the moisture content, taste and texture, specialty mushrooms should be refrigerated in breathable paper/cardboard with holes that allow for an exchange of CO2 and air.
Life: Best if used within 5 – 7 days
Important Note: Mushrooms should also be cooked which breaks down a compound called chitin and allows nutrients to be absorbed when eaten. If mushrooms are left in the refrigerator too long, they may release spores which look like a white powder. The spores are not dangerous in small amounts, but they can be a respiratory irritant for some. We recommend storing your mushrooms inside of their box from The Garden International to protect other produce from spores.
How to use: Enjoy the fresh lion’s mane mushrooms right away! You can cook them in various ways like sautéing, grilling, or adding them to soups and stews. Just make sure to cook them thoroughly. Note: Since we grow to order, shipping times are about speed and fulfillment takes 3 – 10 business days. Keep in mind that the mushrooms should be refrigerated in breathable paper or cardboard with holes for air. They’re best used within 5 – 7 days. Also, cooking helps break down a compound and makes nutrients easier to absorb. If they stay in the fridge too long, they might release spores which could be a bit irritating for some. So it’s a good idea to keep them in the box they came in to protect other food.
