The king of Japanese mushrooms. Matsutake.
-
Wonderfully aromatic and unforgettably delicious, Matsutake is one of Japan's renowned autumn foods. It is also, unfortunately, expensive because it is harvested in the wild and difficult to find. The price varies every year between several thousand and tens of thousands of yen, depending on the size of the annual harvest.
When cooked, matsutake radiates a fresh, distinctive aroma that is loved by Japanese. It can be prepared in various ways, such as in soups, on rice, in hotpots, steamed, charbroiled, in sukiyaki or in tempura. The most popular way to enjoy its seasonal autumn aroma is by steaming it in an earthenware teapot as dobinmushi.
