Lion's Mane mushrooms are renowned for their unique appearance and flavor. They have a meaty texture and a delicate, seafood-like taste, often compared to crab or lobster. When cooked, they take on a slightly sweet flavor with hints of umami.
Originally from North America, Europe, and Asia, Lion's Mane mushrooms are now cultivated worldwide. They grow on hardwood trees in a distinctive, cascading formation that resembles a lion's mane, hence their name.
