Guest guest Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 Hi Francesca: I have tried to find a picture of one on Google but haven't been successful. 'Kikurage' is the japanese name. There are an enormous number of 'english' names the most descriptive of which is 'elephant's ear'. The ones I use come dried, are black in colour, and are crunchy in texture after being rehydrated. I usually cut them into strips before cooking. I have never seen nutrient data for them. If I am counting my nutrients I assume they are the same as for other mushrooms. Pretty much any japanese food store should have them. Rodney. > > > What I do now is slice them (both shiitake and kikurage) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
