Product Use |
Maitake mushroom, also known as hen-of-the-woods or dancing mushroom, is a highly sought after edible mushroom that is native to the northeastern regions of Japan, North America, and Europe. It is a parasitic mushroom, commonly growing at the base of oak, maple, and elm trees.
Unlike many other mushrooms that are commercially cultivated, maitake mushrooms are primarily wild harvested. However, there are some specialty farms that cultivate maitake mushrooms using artificial logs inoculated with the mushroom spores.
The growing season for maitake mushrooms is typically from late summer to early fall, with peak production occurring during the months of October and November. These mushrooms are handpicked by experienced foragers, as they grow in clusters and can often blend in with their surroundings.
