Sautéed Mushrooms with Soy Butter Sauce

Sautéed Mushrooms with Soy Butter Sauce

Three varieties of Japanese mushrooms hit the hot pan together, each bringing its own texture to the mix. A quick toss with garlic, butter, and soy sauce creates a rich coating that highlights the earthy mushroom flavors without masking them.

Ingredients

  • 12 shiitake mushrooms
  • 1 packageshimeji mushrooms
  • 1 packageenoki mushrooms
  • 1 clovegarlic, minced
  • 1 tspneutral oil
  • 1 tbspbutter
  • 1 tbspsoy sauce
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 green onion, chopped

Instructions

  1. Remove shiitake stems and halve the caps. Trim the bottom inch from the shimeji cluster and gently separate the mushrooms by hand. Cut 1 inch from the enoki bottom and divide into small bunches about the width of your thumb.
  2. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over high heat until it shimmers. Add the garlic and all the mushrooms at once. Stir-fry constantly for 2 minutes — the mushrooms will release their moisture and start to soften.

  3. Drop in the butter and soy sauce, letting the butter melt completely. Season with salt and pepper, then give everything a final stir to coat. Transfer to a serving plate immediately and scatter the green onion on top.
