Maitake Mushroom 新鮮舞茸
Maitake Mushroom 新鮮舞茸
マイタケ
Although maitake mushroom has been used in Japan and China for thousands of years, it has only gained popularity in North America over the last twenty years. People are praising this mushroom for its promises of health, vitality, and longevity.
Maitake mushrooms have a wild, feathery look that we adore. To maintain their textural appeal, put away that knife and simply use your hands to get them into manageable pieces. Starting at the stem, break the cluster into large clumps with some of the core attached (think mushroom florets). From there, tear into smaller pieces before sautéing. (Or grilling. Or searing. Or putting in a sauce.)
舞茸屬菇類,含有豐富營養成分,包括大量食物纖維,能有效幫助降低血糖值及預防糖尿病等。另外更能調整腸道,從而達至消除便秘,抑制脂肪及糖類吸收等的瘦身效果。
舞茸的鳥苷酸成分能有助帶出菜式鮮味,於日常烹調的菜式加入舞茸,可使菜式分外鮮美,簡單地煮出味道多層次且風味濃郁的佳餚。另外,舞茸所含的蛋白質分解酵素(蛋白酶)可有助分解肉類的蛋白質,令肉質變得更柔軟,滿足對食肉有要求的一群!
