Development Background and Product Outline

This product, "Maitake Soup," is an upcycling concept that was born from the idea of making effective use of maitake mushrooms, which are disposed of because they are out of standard and cannot be marketed. Because maitake mushrooms are difficult to grow, they often vary in shape and size, and some are hard to find in the market, but their taste and aroma are not inferior at all. As a producer of maitake mushrooms, we have started to develop a "sustainable and delicious seasoning" that makes the most of the whole flavor of maitake mushrooms in cooperation with a long-established local company, Daihyu Seimen, with the hope that people will enjoy the food to the last. We extracted all the flavor of the thick, aromatic "Nanatsumori Fumoto Maitake" mushrooms and blended them perfectly with the secret sauce base that Daihyu Seimen has been cultivating for many years. It can be used not only for soba and udon noodles, but also for simmered, stir-fried, and cooked rice dishes as a "versatile seasoning". We hope that this product will help reduce food loss while also providing an opportunity for people to rediscover the charm of local flavors.
