Nameko Mushroom Growing Kit

Description

Nameko mushrooms (Pholiota microspora) are an important part of Japanese cooking and an ingredient in many dishes, including traditional miso soup.

Nameko mushrooms have long white stems and smooth caps that range in color from amber to an orange-brown. Each cap is no more than an inch in diameter and has a shiny gelatinous covering. It’s this slippery cap that earned the mushroom its name, as nameko literally translates to “slimy mushroom” in Japanese.
