What is Lion\u2019s Mane Mushroom?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hericium erinaceus, <\/em>also known as Lion\u2019s Mane<\/a>, yamabushitake, satyr\u2019s beard, monkey\u2019s head, bearded tooth (and various other names that refer to its peculiar appearance) is a medicinal and culinary mushroom that grows in North America, Europe, and Asia. Lion\u2019s Mane grows on decaying hardwood trees and logs, gradually decomposing the wood. It is similar to other Hericium <\/em>species, such as H. americanum <\/em>and H. coralloides<\/em>, and shares with them its characteristic features: irregularly-shaped, round, white fruiting bodies, covered in long drooping spines resembling icicles. Although Lion\u2019s Mane is one of the easiest mushrooms to cultivate or grow in a lab, they are not commonly found in the wild. It is not known why this is the case, however, mushroom growing kits<\/a> are available for enthusiasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Young Lion\u2019s Mane mushrooms are cultivated and consumed as a delicacy, and supposedly have a flavor similar to seafood, particularly lobster. They are also high in protein.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
