LION'S MANE MUSHROOM | health benefits + 10-minute recipe

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

I recently discovered Lion's Mane mushrooms, LOVED them, and had to share!! Have you tried them before? LMK! XO - Dani

[@SuziJacuzzie]

I would like to try it, no doubt and I never heard of lion mushroom before 🤔 I will be looking out for them supermarket, former’s market or organic store. I hope I’ll be able to find them here in the UK 🇬🇧

[@SuziJacuzzie]

Thanks Dani💚

[@lorrem2539]

Looks like a mushroom I would eat! Ty

[@KKing55]

They are not at my store?

[@Nelson_Nicholson]

I'm going to take a look in the woods, awesome videos.

[@donnatecce1884]

I've been taking the powder fir a few years. It regenerate neurons. It's incredibly powerful. I've cooked a few times but they never really come out. So delicate. I'll try again. Ty

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

Thanks for sharing, Donna! I found roasting and sauteeing them to be very easy - perhaps give one of these methods a try.

[@equestrianesse]

Our mushroom vendor at my weekly farmer’s market has these and I’ve never bought them! I’ve tried a lot but not these, and now I can’t wait until Thursday to buy some and try your recipes. ❤️

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

You are so lucky!! I can't wait to hear what you think.

[@daveshoemaker3959]

I am a novice at growing mushrooms. However I grew these from a kit and have huge mushrooms!! DELICIOUS and meaty.

[@crystalshaffner8057]

I use these to make “crab” cakes and my family loves them!!

[@appleofelohimseyes7774]

Heyyy can I get the recipe pleaseeee

[@LulusMom1220]

Absolutely love this series, Dani! As one of your vegan subscribers, the amount of valuable content here is so appreciated. Your research and beautifully presented KZbins are in a class of their own. 😍

[@missmud2053]

This is my all time favourite mushroom.. I grow a few varieties but I truly LOVE the lions mane

[@jwatamel1414]

I am a fan of mushrooms but, I have never seen or heard of these mushrooms. I may need to order some, you make them look so tasty! Thanks for sharing. You are my go to when I want to try something new and/or healthy with my family.

[@laurengianna9944]

They are amazing you need to find them. I live in Queens NY and we have a farmers market where I get them on Sunday’s.

[@donnawayne1005]

Absolutely delicious & very easy to prepare. This was our 1st time having a Lion's Mane Mushroom so I went simple. After slicing them into 1/2" slices, I sauteed them in a dry skillet until they started to get a golden color. I then added about 1 Tbls. bacon fat & a light sprinkle of sea salt & continued cooking for a couple of minutes. We were having Miracle Noodles in a light sauce with browned ground pork sausage & the mushrooms just added an extra delicious touch to our meal, as a side. I was able to acquire our Lion's Mane through Imperfect Foods, in case anyone wants to try looking there.

[@williammillard2683]

My husband has started growing Lion's Mane at home. At first he faced some challenges, especially with mold. But now we are starting to have a regular lion's mane crop and I am learning how to cook them! Thanks for the good advice on your video!

[@Frostysleet]

I miss your 101 series! I love eating lion’s mane mushroom, it has such a delightful meaty texture. There is a vegetarian restaurant chain in Singapore that sells this amazing rendang lion’s mane mushroom. So good!

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

I miss them too and plan to share more going forward! XO

[@JoshuaCueva]

Recently bought and have been using a Lion's Mane powder that I use for smoothies. Will definitely keep lion's mane as a staple. It's a good healthy ingredient I can look forward to incorporating more often!

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

Have you noticed a difference since using the powder?

[@nindes]

Today we saw them at the local market here in the uk and grabbed the last batch, tomorrow morning we will try them for the first time sautéed and cooked in butter, ive heard so much about the benefits so am excited to try them 😊

[@jeremyreinhold3620]

I started growing mushies for these guys and enoki. Enoki is super easy. Just heat seal the bag and cut a few air slits. They grow long stems perfect for meat wraps and soups

[@jayv999]

This just became my favorite mushroom. Thanks for the cooking tips!

[@pattywilliams788]

I have never heard of lion’s mane mushrooms. I don’t eat mushrooms but this one looks fascinating and really pretty. I would try it because it doesn’t look like any mushroom I’ve ever seen. Thanks so much for sharing, Dani!

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

Fascinating is a great word - that's exactly what they are!

[@Kay_Lu]

I have MS and I take the Genius Mushroom. It’s in a white clear bottle with an orange top. I have been taking to since January and people tell me they can see an difference Alain with me feeling the difference. It makes my thought clearer and I am able to complete more task. I don’t for things as much as I used to. I don’t know abt other brands but that particular brand works for me. A month’s supply for $21. I want to find the produce itself so I can try your recipe. Good look everyone!

[@kevinmonceaux2101]

I've never seen lion's mane mushrooms at stores in my area. I'm about to give growing mushrooms a try. I ordered a blue oyster mushroom kit earlier today. If those go well, I might give a lion's mane kit a try. Another video I watched suggested one option for dealing with their excess moisture was to press them with a tortilla press before cooking them.

[@tashawaters89]

I tried some I found at the public market, now I’m drinking it in powdered form. Quite good! Kind of chewy, but it looks really cool.

[@michelepryor2777]

Thank you for doing the bloops at the end! It encourage me to step out there because no one’s perfect! And that was hilarious..😂 Thank you so much for that great information about the Lions mane.👌🏽

[@johnnyalegria]

Growing lions mane at home right now! Enjoyed video! Love from San Diego.

[@janelandry6584]

I am absolutely going to look for these. Thanks for introducing them.

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

It's my pleasure! I'm so glad you plan to give them a try.

[@andreahaibara4716]

I’m from Brazil and I love your videos and recipes! Thank you!

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

HI Andrea! Thanks for saying hello - I appreciate you being here.

[@elaine5953]

I found them in the woods (while looking for Chantarelles) instead of the grocery store. Watched this video on how to prepare them and they were fantastic! Thank you.

[@rosebonner7091]

We found a few Lion's Mane Mushrooms on a tree. My better half said they were so tasty to cook up but I was reluctant since I never heard of them. After watching your video I am so excited to give them a try! I think I will make them as a snack to watch the world cup semi-finals.

[@aquajem1]

I’m growing lions mane, I would recommend trying it!

[@kogki9260]

Few tea spoons of ghee, 1 tsp Jeera seeds, 1/4 tsp rosemary seeds, 1/2 tsp turmeric, 1/2 tsp coriander powder, heated until seeds pop a little, then add the slightly heated& pressed cross sections of 🍄, for few mins only I found it crisps really fast if too much oil or butter or ghee. then I add em to palak paneer

[@gassyjack5421]

Bought a large lions mane mushroom today at the farmers market in Partick, Glasgow. Stall holder wasn't sure how best to cook them, hence why I am on this channel. Good tips in this video and I look forward to cooking it. V expensive so I had better get it right!

[@thescintillatingscientist7953]

Yessss, Dani!!! I am so happy you created this video! I have been wanting to give them a try but I was nervous...lol. You made this so simple, fun and delicious looking that I am ready to go buy one now! Woohoo! Thanks dear 👊🏽😊💜

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

Your comment makes my day! I'm so happy that you plan to try them!

[@GK-vt4ux]

I purchased a table top kit from Field and Forest Products. they also have a youtube channel. They are very easy to grow. You just slit open the bag and leave it alone. I live in Colorado and it is pretty dry here so I was worried there would not be enough humidity but they grew FABULOUSLY and I fried them up and saved about $7.99 for an ounce

[@Boykin1017]

I’ve seen them at grocery store sometimes but was scared to get them. I appreciate your video because cooking them doesn’t look hard at all! This is on my to do list to try this whenever i see them at the store again!

[@Tulips4565]

Hi Dani ✋🏾 You're channel gives me the confidence to try new vegetables and fruits. I can't wait to try this.🍄🍄🍄

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

That makes me SO happy!! Healthy eating is so much more fun when you can enjoy a variety of new and delicious foods!

[@endochick9310]

Excellent video. Just what I was looking for. Thank you.

[@sagem3363]

Thank u for this I recently discovered this mushroom loved then using this recipe though i went overboard with the butter will try again. But they were so good I may try growing them since they are so easy and I find hard to come by here and if I do they are really expensive - thanks for the 101s it’s very helpful to me

[@brianedwards5887]

Just Viewed your Video, and pretty much used your pan sear method, My Twist: Used Extra Virgin Coconut oil in pan, then saute with Scotch Bonnet ginger hot sauce, olive oil and Tamarind Paste! Most delicious delicacy on the planet!

[@jJaqStone]

Because Lion's Mane tastes similar to crab, I sauteed some with shrimp and garlic butter. Very simple. Absolutely delicious! Next experiment will be crab cakes! Your mushrooms look great so I'll be trying them your way as well. Thank you for the tips.

[@battzipora]

Yummm… I love mushroom season. Recently made GF faux crabcakes with Lions Mane mushroom, with a mayo-mustard dip.Can’t wait to try this sautéed. Just found 2 packages at my store.

Warning: if you have type 1 diabetes like myself. Lions mane lowers blood sugar. I knew this before hand and thought that’s fine I’ll keep an eye on it. My sugar was fine that day…the following two days my sugar plummeted to 30 for no reason. (For those that don’t know blood sugar should be between 75-95. 85-105 for diabetics for safety reasons.)

I was told if this mushroom by my cousin and bought them from our local farmers market. They are sold from a local farm in Santa Cruz,CA but they are at the weekend markets. Not sure how they are priced but it was $5 for the size of approx a baseball. Is that the average? Because if your video, I pan fried it snd I could just eat that over salad greens and call it a night. I also want more to top my Piadine on those lazy nights :) Anyways, pls share more of these videos. Oh, can we eat these raw with or without a dip?

Great vid. New to Lion's Mane food prep, I found what I needed to know about cooking them right here. I did pan fried, and they were a delight. Nice to know I can also do them in an air fryer scenario. For those interested in more medicinal info, search down Paul Stamets here on YT. Also, watch the interview with Joe Rogan for a seriously eye opening interview. Paul has a small company dealing in fungi supplements called "Fungi Perfecti." I started on a daily dose of Lion's Mane, and within 3 days I was noticing a significant cognitive/energy improvement. Amazing really. Feel the Lion's Roar!
