I tried making Bagna Cauda with the "grated dried Shiitake" introduced on NHK-TV's "Gatten!" show, and it's so delicious I can't stop eating!
Dried Shiitake's unique Umami taste component, Guanylate complements the Umami taste of other ingredients, making recipes much more delicious while reducing the salt required by 1/3.

Zen monks found Forest-grown Shiitake is the best Umami enhancer for Vegan Cuisine more than 1000-years ago in Japan. The drying and rehydrating process of Shiitake produces "Guanylate," a natural Umami energizer. Guanylate amplifies the Umami taste of all foods.
Unlike Dried Porcini, Shiitake can enhance the Umami taste of your cooking without adding a mushroom flavor.

Tips and tricks:
Adding a little water to Shiitake powder and waiting 10 minutes before using, maximizes 3x the Umami Flavor! One dry Tbsp equals one pre-soaked tsp, the same Umami boosting power.
