Dried Lions Mane

Lions Mane mushrooms harvested from oak sawdust and soy hull fruiting blocks and slow-dried at 115°F (46°C) for 12 hours. Lions Mane packs umami and multiple bioactive substances that benefit the body. This is very versatile, doing well in stir-fries, tacos, and so much more!

Lions Mane is ~91% water by weight. Drying reduces this to 5-8%. Therefore, when cooking with Lions Mane, it is important to remember that the rehydrated weight of your mushroom is about ten times that of the purchased dry weight. If a recipe calls for 100 grams of fresh mushroom, 10 grams of dry mushroom will be equivalent. These numbers come from current production estimates, and we are in the process of measuring the exact mass change upon rehydration.

More information on the potential benefits and uses can be found on the "Fungiculture" tab under Lions Mane or even on the Lions Mane Powder product tab!

As dried Lions Mane rehydrates x10, here is a helpful mass chart (and conversions for those that prefer the imperial measurement system):

• Dry: 20 grams, Rehydrated: 200 grams ≈ .44 lb
• Dry: 50 grams, Rehydrated: 500 grams ≈ 1.10 lb
• Dry: 100 grams, Rehydrated: 1000 grams ≈ 2.20 lb
