Maitake

Grifola

Maitake mushrooms, also known as 'hen of the woods', grow in clusters at the base of trees. They have a unique appearance with overlapping brownish caps and are prized for their delicious taste in cooking.

外見

The Maitake has wavy, fan-shaped caps that layer in dense, overlapping clusters, resembling a frilly, leafy bush. Its caps range from grayish-brown to tan, often with paler edges, and are supported by a thick, branching white stalk. This distinctive, cauliflower-like appearance makes it easily recognizable.
