Main Ingredients
- 2 King Oyster Mushrooms
Seasoning & Flavor Boosters
- 1/3 Tbsp Sugar
- 1/2 Tbsp Soy Sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp Mirin (or Cooking Wine)
- 1 piece Butter (approx. 10g)
- 1/3 Tbsp Sugar
- 1/2 Tbsp Soy Sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp Mirin (or Cooking Wine)
- 1 piece Butter (approx. 10g)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Start by preparing 2 fresh King Oyster Mushrooms. Wash them thoroughly and then slice them thinly, about 0.5 cm thick, into flat rounds. Arrange the sliced mushrooms in a single layer on a wide pan, ensuring they don’t overlap. Sprinkle 1/3 tablespoon of sugar evenly over the mushrooms. Your prep is now complete!
Step 2
Now, let’s add the key to its delicious flavor. Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon of soy sauce evenly over the mushrooms. Then, sprinkle 1/2 tablespoon of Mirin (or cooking wine) over the soy sauce. Mirin helps to eliminate any mushroomy odors and enhances the savory notes of the dish.
Step 3
Heat the pan over low heat. It’s crucial to maintain a low heat to prevent burning. Using a spatula, carefully flip each mushroom slice as it cooks. Spoon the soy sauce and Mirin mixture from the bottom of the pan over the mushrooms, basting them as they cook. This technique allows the sauce to deeply penetrate the mushrooms, intensifying their flavor. This step also helps the mushrooms cook tenderly and stay moist.
Step 4
Once the mushrooms begin to turn golden brown, cut the piece of butter into smaller portions and distribute them evenly over the mushrooms in the pan. Placing smaller butter pieces in several spots will ensure it melts and spreads evenly, contributing to a richer flavor.
Step 5
The butter will start to melt slowly, releasing a wonderful, nutty aroma that will tantalize your senses. Continue basting the mushrooms with the melting butter using a spoon. As the butter coats the mushrooms, it adds an even deeper, richer taste and a beautiful sheen. Cook them carefully to maintain a wonderfully chewy yet tender texture.
Step 6
Voilà! Your incredibly delicious and visually appealing King Oyster Mushroom Soy Butter Grill is ready. Freshly made, these warm grilled mushrooms offer a delightful chewiness, a perfectly balanced sweet and savory soy flavor, and the irresistible richness of butter – truly ‘super’ delicious! They are fantastic served over a bowl of rice or paired with your favorite beverage, making them an excellent appetizer or snack. We highly recommend you give this recipe a try!
