Shiitakemushroomandonionsalad Recipes

Steps:

• In a large heavy saucepan, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, ginger root, and mushrooms and saute for 3 minutes, or until the mushrooms are just seared and still dry. Deglaze the pan with the vinegar and reduce over medium-high heat until almost no liquid remains. Stir in the sambal olek and salt and remove from the heat. Add the vinaigrette and tir to mix. Set aside and allow to marinate for at least 6 hours. The mushrooms can be kept covered in the refrigerator, for up to 4 days.

Steps:

• Saute mushrooms and ginger in olive oil until soft and fragrant.
• Add chicken stock and water and bring to a boil.
• Add Soba noodles and boil until soft.
• Lower heat and add spinach, cook until wilted.
• Finally add soy sauce and lime juice to taste.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook, tossing occasionally, until tender and golden brown, 8-10 minutes.
• Add 2 tablespoons water to skillet and cook, tossing mushrooms occasionally, until water is evaporated and mushrooms are tender, about 2 minutes longer. Transfer mushrooms to a medium bowl and toss with teriyaki sauce.
• DO AHEAD: Mushrooms can be made 5 days ahead; cover and chill.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, bring vinegar, sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt to a simmer. Remove from heat; stir in onion. Let cool completely. If desired, refrigerate in an airtight container up to 1 week. Drain, reserving onion and 1/3 cup liquid.
• Place spinach in a large bowl. In a large straight-sided skillet or shallow pot, heat 1/4 cup oil over medium-high. Add mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and golden brown in places, about 15 minutes. Add about one-quarter of spinach and cook just until collapsed, about 1 minute. Immediately spoon mushroom mixture over spinach in bowl; add reserved pickled onion and pickling liquid, remaining 1/4 cup oil, and sesame seeds. Toss to evenly coat. Season with salt and pepper; serve.

Steps:

• Heat a wok or 12-inch heavy skillet over high heat until a bead of water dropped onto cooking surface evaporates immediately. Add oil, swirling it around wok, and heat until it begins to smoke.
• Add bacon and stir-fry until brown and crisp, about 3 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and reserve for another use.
• Add scallions and garlic to bacon fat and stir-fry until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour broth down side of wok (it will bubble vigorously), add salt and pepper, and bring to a boil. Add mushrooms, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, turning occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer mushrooms to a bowl with a slotted spoon and, when cool enough to handle, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Drizzle liquid over mushrooms if desired.

Steps:

• Bring 3 cups dried shiitake mushrooms (about 3 ounces), 1/3 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce, 1 tablespoon raw or brown sugar, and 1 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan. Cover pan; reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are softened and all liquid is absorbed, 12-15 minutes.
• Let mushrooms cool slightly, then thinly slice. Transfer to a small bowl, add 1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds, and season with freshly ground black pepper.
