Brown Beech Mushrooms are known as Buna-Shimeji, Hypsizigus Tessellatus. They are considered as one of the most gourmet mushrooms due to their rich flavor that consists of a mild, sweet and nutty taste with a firm texture. The Shimeji should be cooked, having a bitter taste when raw which disappears completely upon cooking. The cooked mushroom has a firm, slightly crunchy texture and a nutty flavor. Preparation makes the mushroom easier to digest. It is often eaten with stir-fried foods including wild game and seafood. It is used in soups, stews and sauces. When prepared alone, Shimeji mushrooms can be sautéed as a whole, including the stem or stalk (only the very end cut off), using a higher temperature; or, they can be slow roasted on a low temperature with a small amount of butter or cooking oil.


Our live Brown Beech Mushroom Liquid Culture Syringe contains an isolated biological sample nurtured, tested, and expanded here at Liquid Fungi. Each Brown Beech Mushroom Culture is guaranteed 100% contaminate free, or we will replace it at no cost to you. Every mushroom culture syringe contains a proven high-output isolated sub-strain for maximum Brown Beech Mushroom yield and minimum incubation time. Every purchase includes a sterile individually packaged hypodermic needle for injecting substrate. Mushroom culture syringes are used by laboratories to easily transfer isolated biological samples between locations and substrates without risk of contamination. Mushroom syringes should never be used to inject humans or animals for any reason.
