Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Dried shiitake mushrooms are safe and nutritious during pregnancy once properly rehydrated and cooked. They deliver concentrated B vitamins, minerals, and rich umami flavor that can satisfy prenatal savory cravings. Always soak dried mushrooms in hot water until tender and cook them thoroughly to steaming temperatures. Use the strained soaking liquid and cooked sliced caps to enrich prenatal soups and risottos.
