HANGAWI’S HIGHLIGHT OF THE SEASON The MATSUTAKE Story Matsutake Mushroom - The King of Mushrooms In Japanese, 'Matsu' means pine tree and 'take' mushroom. As its name suggests, the Matsutake mushroom only grows wildly at the base of pine trees deep in the mountains. It is one of the few mushrooms that grow beside live foliage unlike most mushrooms which thrive on dead tree trunks. In the east, the Matsutake mushroom has long been prized as the king of mushrooms for its freshness, unique fragrance and its health benefits. Asians believe that this mushroom detoxifies the body thereby boosting immunity and also revitalizes the body and energy. The Matsutake mushroom is only available for a limited time in the beginning of fall to early winter. Because of its rarity, it is considered a privilege and great honor to be treated to a Matsutake meal. At HanGawi, we are proud to present this prized mushroom in our fall menu. The Matsutake mushroom is best served lightly cooked with minimum seasoning in order to preserve its fragrance.
