The
Wisconsin Mycological Society | Maitake
Tea
Use 2-4 grams daily prepared as a tea. The daily amount,
taken as tea,
should be split between morning and evening.
The dried mushroom
can easily be ground to a powder in a coffee grinder.
Bring the tea to
a boil, and then reduce to a simmer. For maximum benefit
you can simmer the
tea from 2-4 hours, although a fairly strong tea can be
made in 20-30 minutes.
The grounds can be re-heated with benefit, discard
the grounds when they no
longer produce color in the tea.
Filter the tea through a coffee filter before
drinking. As mentioned the
grounds can be re-used as long as they produce
color in the tea. Any un-used
portion of the Maitake tea can be refrigerated
and used up to two days
later. Shake the stored tea before using it.
