Japanese Salt Grilled Eryngii Mushrooms (Kinoko no shioyaki) 日式盐烧杏鲍菇



Just back from Japan trip (Tokyo & Hokkaido), and we had a wonderful trip with good foods and enjoyed the fall foliage at Sounkyo Gorge. While I still sorting out the thousand of photos taken, today I cooked this mushroom as one of the dish widely served during autumn in Japan, I refer to the information provided here.

 

Today I bought a pack of 3 Eryngii mushrooms only cost me RM 2.50 (USD 0.80)

 

This dish is quick, cooking time only 5mins..and it tasted so yummy, the texture like eating abalone !

(recipe source: reference to here, by Sonia aka Nasi Lemak Lover)

3pcs of Eryngii  Mushrooms, slice each piece into 3 thick slices

3 small cubes of butter (salted)
Sea salt
Crushed black pepper
1/2tbsp sake or mirin, optional

Method

1. Heat a non-stick pan over high medium heat. Add the butter and place the mushrooms, cut side down, in the pan, for 1-2 minutes for both sides.
2. This will sear the bottom of the mushrooms to a nice golden brown, partially caramelizing them.
3. Sprinkle with salt and crushed black pepper to taste and covering the pan for a 1-2 minutes. This will steam and cook the mushroom further.
4. Sprinkle wit sake or mirin (optional), dish out and serve with rice.
