🍄 What is the Lion's Mane mushroom ?
The Lion's Mane - in French lion's mane or Hedgehog hydnum, sometimes called white pompom or yamabushitake in Japan - is a mushroom unlike any other. Honestly, the first time you see one, you wonder if it really is a mushroom. This cascade of white filaments, like an ice beard hanging from a tree trunk, is quite spectacular.
Our powder is made from the whole mushroom (Hericium erinaceus), cultivated in organic farming certified by Ecocert, then dried and ground into a fine powder.
The result? A versatile ingredient, with a neutral taste in powder form, that easily integrates into your daily diet.Fresh Lion's Mane is often compared in Asian cuisine to certain seafood - lobster or crab - for its tender texture and its Sweet umami flavor, slightly nutty. . In powder form, the taste is much more subtle, almost neutral. This is precisely what makes it so easy to use.
Here is how to use Lion's Mane powder daily :
- Broths and soups : 1 teaspoon (about 2 g) in a hot broth - it dissolves in a few seconds. Personally, this is how I use it most often in the morning.
- Smoothies and lattes : golden latte, matcha latte, raw cacao latte - one teaspoon and it's done, imperceptible taste.
- Vegetable pâtés and spreads : mixed with a base of soaked cashews or sunflower seeds, it adds a subtle umami note.
- Seasoning of sauces : in a miso sauce, a vinaigrette, or a curry, it blends perfectly.
- Sprinkled on bowls : rice, quinoa, roasted vegetables - a pinch before serving.
Moreover, if you are looking to combine several superfoods in cooking, our organic spirulina powder and our organic Cordyceps powder pair very well with Lion's Mane in a smoothie or a morning broth.
🍄 How to use Lion's Mane powder ?Usage suggestion : 1 to 3 g per day (or ½ to 1 level teaspoon) in your culinary preparations or drinks. In the morning in a hot drink, it's the simplest. In the early afternoon in a smoothie, it works very well too.
Start with a small amount - half a teaspoon - and gradually increase according to your taste. (The powder is concentrated, no need to use a lot.)
