Made with carefully cultivated Sunmine shiitake mushrooms and high-quality kelp harvested in Hokkaido, this versatile powdered mix is full of umami. The earthy smokiness of the shiitake pairs perfectly with the gentle oceanic saltiness of the kelp to create a luxurious flavor and aroma. 

Driven by a desire to revitalize the region and create a product locals would be proud of, Sunmine utilizes precision machinery and agricultural research to run a year-round fungus bed shiitake cultivation operation. Drawing from the company president’s knowledge of microbial research and sustainable agriculture practices, Sunmine has developed careful cultivation practices in uniquely designed growing units. The resulting high-quality mushrooms are harvested by hand daily and then sold fresh or crafted into a wide range of products including preserved mushrooms, teas, and seasonings. To reduce waste, smaller mushrooms are dried and ground into powders, like this shiitake broth tea, and fungus beds are composted once they can no longer be used. 
 

Suggested uses: Add one scoop of shiitake broth tea powder to 150ml of boiling water, stir to combine and enjoy as a relaxing tea time treat. Like dashi powder, it can also be added to soup stocks, fried rice, pasta, dashi maki tamago (Japanese rolled omelet), ochazuke (tea with rice), and more.
