Matsutake mushrooms are treasured in Eastern Asia because of their scarcity and amazing potent flavor. These mushrooms have a spicy flavor often compared to cinnamon. The Matsutake Mushroom (Tricholoma matsutake) has a very woodsy aroma, making it a powerful flavoring tool for any classic mushroom dish. Dried Matsutake mushrooms (also called "pine mushrooms") are occasionally even ground into a powder to use as a flavoring agent to other dishes. Matsutakes are said to have a spicy flavor that is sometimes compared to cinnamon, but no description will suffice... you have to experience it for yourself! Matsutakes are prized in Japan because of their aroma and flavor. With Matsutakes, less is sometimes more, as their powerful flavor can overwhelm a dish if too much is used. To Reconstitute Matsutake Mushrooms: Rinse well and soak in water for 20 minutes or more. Use promptly after re-constituting.
