Curry Coconut Shiitake Meatball Sandwich

It is harvesting time and we are back with another dope recipe using mushrooms I grew at home with a North Spore Fruiting Block Kit and Boom Room. This was a nice flush with close to 1.3 pounds of shiitake mushrooms. It takes about 1-2 months to get the shiitake bag ready to start fruiting, but North Spore makes it easier and faster to grow at home. It took about 10-11 days to grow once I took the fruiting block out of its bag. Because it grows outside of the bag, it’s best to grow in a tent or fruiting chamber to prevent contamination. I chose shiitake mushrooms for this recipe because shiitake is very meaty and has a delicious umami flavor. This recipe takes some work, but at the end of the day, it's incredible to go from harvest to table right at home.
