Trader Joe's is bolstering its selection of frozen veggies with the debut of its new Crispy Shiitake Mushrooms.
While shiitake mushrooms are already delicious on their own, they're even more delicious when coated in batter and fried until crisp, which is exactly what Trader Joe's Crispy Shiitake Mushrooms are. The mushrooms come from a supplier in Vietnam who oversees the mushroom growing process to grow each one to the perfect size for frying. The mushrooms are then coated in a savory batter and fried until perfectly crisp to achieve a perfect balance between the shiitakes’ meaty texture and its umami-forward flavor. Best of all, the mushrooms are incredibly easy to prepare. Simply pull them from the freezer and pop them in the air fryer or oven and they are ready in minutes.
