Maitake – the Japanese "dancing mushroom", rich in polysaccharides.

Maitake (Grifola frondosa), also known as the hen of the woods, is a large, branched fungus that grows in clusters. It most commonly thrives on oak roots or stumps, but can also be found on other deciduous trees, such as beech and chestnut.

While it can be found in European forests, Maitake is much more prevalent in its native habitat in Asia, particularly in Japan and China.

There, it has long been esteemed in both culinary and herbal traditions. Maitake is an edible mushroom with an exceptionally tasty, slightly sweet, and nutty flavour, which many chefs describe as umami.
