Its texture is meaty, and it hardly releases any moisture when sautéed.
How is it used?
Satohuone's Lion's Mane mushroom is really easy to use. It requires no special handling, blanching, or sautéeing off water. Just open the package and chop it onto a hot, oiled pan. Sauté until nicely golden brown and crispy. Season simply with salt and pepper. And for garlic lovers, of course, add garlic. You can try it as pulled mushrooms or slice and press it into patties. Lion's mane mushroom is delicious on its own, but also pairs wonderfully with Asian dishes, soups, risottos, or even on pizza.
Not just any mushroom...
Mushrooms are in general healthy, light food. However, lion's mane mushroom is much more than that. Many recognize lion's mane as a medicinal mushroom, and it can be found in many modern dietary supplements. It truly is functional food at its best.
Numerous studies have been conducted on lion's mane mushroom, which suggest that it may have effects not only as an adaptogen but also on depression, anxiety, focus, cognitive functions, memory, dementia, Alzheimer's, and even increase neurogenesis, which is the formation of new brain cells. It is definitely worth googling for more information about this superhero of the mushroom kingdom!
