Lion's Mane
This mushroom is a departure from typical mushroom flavor and texture. It shreds into excellent crab-like pieces. In fact, we use it to make a crab cake variation that we like to call Lion Cakes. They are amazing. We also use Lion's Mane to make whole cluster steaks as well as pulled dishes similar to shredded chicken or pork.
Studies show that this sculptural masterpiece of a mushroom promotes nerve and brain health, helps relieve symptoms of depression & anxiety, improves memory, reduces inflammation. * Personally, when we use Lion's Mane tincture regularly, we find it helps us with mental clarity, focus, and memory.
HiFi offers Lion's Mane as grow kits, powder and tinctures.
Reishi
This antioxidant and anti-inflammatory medicinal mushroom is a staple in many mushroom enthusiasts' supplement intake. Studies show that Reishi can improve the immune system, lower blood pressure and cholesterol, speed wound recovery and assist with sleep.*
It has an earthy, slightly bitter aftertaste and hifi offers it in powder or tincture form to drop into coffee, juice or tea.
Cordyceps
Studies show that this Cheeto-colored mushroom may reduce cholesterol, increase ATP levels, aids removal of lactic acid, is anti-inflammatory and enhances respiration.*
Hifi offers cordyceps in powder or tincture form to drop into coffee, juice or tea.
Mushrooms we sell only at our Central Texas farmer's markets
Black Pearl
This newcomer to the realm of delicious mushrooms combines the flavor of a blue oyster with the texture of a king trumpet, creating a best of both worlds situation to rival the fruit of the gods. Absolutely excellent on its own as a main course or added to sautes and stir fry.
King trumpet
The quintessential grilling mushroom. Slice, score and hit with the hot hot heat for an unforgettable experience. They also make vegan scallops that will rival any sea based bivalve.
Chestnut
These mushrooms are the texture masters. They retain a bit of an al dente bite after cooking which makes them perfect for soups and stir fries. They also take extremely well to acidic mediums so lemon or lime it up.
Pioppino
This is one of our favorites at hifi. Its mushroom flavor is unparalleled. Because of this we prefer to cook them in simple dishes that accentuate the mushroom flavor. Examples include simple pasta dishes dressed in mushrooms fat salt and parmesan and risotto.
