Maitake (Grifola frondosa), also known as “hen-of-the-woods” or “dancing mushroom,” is well known among top chefs for its robust, earthy flavor.

It’s popularity is also due to the fact that studies have shown that Maitake has powerful immune system boosting properties. It effectively prevents as well as treats various conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure and most notably, many types of cancer.

Seattle Maitake is proud to offer the finest locally grown Maitake. Our mushrooms are grown from proprietary imported Japanese spawn in a sterile and climate controlled environment, then harvested at the peak of flavor and freshness.

Try Maitake sauteed, stir-fried, as tempura, or in soups for an amazingly delicious and nutritious addition to your family’s table.
