Peachy's Pantry: Shiitake Mushrooms by New Tiger International Highly Recommended by Whom You Know


Shiitake mushrooms are one of my favorite varieties. I do not get to eat them very often, but I am working on incorporating them into more recipes that I use at home. Not only do they taste great but they are good for you too! These hearty mushrooms are packed full of nutrients like vitamin B. They were even thought of in Ancient Chinese cultures as having healing, medicinal properties. New Tiger International offers the highest quality dried Shiitake mushrooms that were such a delight to eat! The drying process actually brings out more of the flavor of the mushroom, so you may even prefer them to fresh like I do. These mushrooms tasted fantastic in a stir fry I created. Absolutely delicious! 

We love the tasty dried Shiitake mushrooms from New Tiger International, Inc. They have a great smokey taste and can be used in just about any mushroom recipe. New Tiger International, Inc. prides themselves on providing high quality mushrooms, clearly evident when using their Shiitake mushrooms. Thoroughly cleaned and ready for cooking, these delights almost leap out of their package to your skillet. We especially loved using them when cooking steak with mushroom sauce. We also added them to our boring vegetable stir-fry for a new twist. We were pleasantly surprised with the extra rich flavor they provided and could imagine using them in many other dishes. Now the questions is, what are you cooking? 

Oh how I love Shiitake Mushrooms. With that being said where do I start to tell you about how amazing these dried shiiake mushrooms are? Well, THEY ARE! They go great with any dish you are making. Chop some up and throw them in your dish! VOILA! You'll see how great they taste. They really taste like they were fresh picked. I honestly can't begin to tell you how delicious they are! 

New Tiger International Inc. started its mushroom importing business 18 years ago. It was the first US Company bringing Asian shiitake mushroom into the US from China, Japan and Korea.
Shitake mushrooms have become an American favorite. These are dried and delicious. I use them in Chinese Hot and Sour Soup. Or with salmon. Shitakes have a more robust flavor than the standard button mushrooms, which makes them go a little farther. By using only half the amount of mushrooms the recipe requires, they can be used in most any recipe. Since they are a nutritional powerhouse, they make a great meat substitute. They are a healthy alternative to meat for people trying to cut back on fat.

New Tiger International Inc. started its mushroom importing business 18 years ago. It was the first US Company bringing Asian shiitake mushroom into the US from China, Japan and Korea. Now, New Tiger International has expanded its products line greatly. It carries dried, frozen, fresh and canned mushrooms, which includes porcini (dried and frozen), truffles (fresh, dried, frozen and canned), chanterelle (dried and frozen), morels (dried and frozen), and dried trumpets, lobsters, oysters, shimaji, maitake, matsutake, namako, wood ear, shiitake and many more. New Tiger International is now importing mushrooms from Asia and East Europe.


Quality and price of the products are the top concern of New Tiger International Inc. New Tiger International Inc. owns many wild mushroom picking-up teams in Asian countries. Some of the processing plants are just close to the wild mushroom growing fields. For instance, fresh porcini will be transported to the plants for quick frozen within 3 hours immediately after they are picked up. So, the first grade of frozen porcini shipped by New Tiger International Inc. is absolutely free from any worms. Due to the owning of picking-up teams and processing plants New Tiger International Inc. could beat any US competitors on quality and price.


To meet the increasing demands from the customers New Tiger International has both retail packages and foodservice packages. It also welcomes private labels. Quality, efficiency and convenience to the customers are the goal of New Tiger International Inc. in its business practice. During this selling season, New Tiger International Inc. will guarantee a 60-90 days shipment for the private labels order so long as the customers will meet the minimum quantity.
