- Saute Shiitake Mushrooms: Heat a frying pan over medium heat and melt the butter. Add the shiitake mushrooms and cook for 2-3 minutes until they are browned. Flip them over and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
- Season: Turn off the heat and add soy sauce to the frying pan. Stir the mushrooms in the soy sauce until they are coated evenly.
Notes
- Storage: Transfer sauteed mushrooms to an airtight container and keep it in the fridge. Good for 3 to 5 days.
- There is no need to rinse shiitake mushrooms. They absorb water quickly and can lose flavor if washed. For light dirt, wipe them with a paper towel
- Before cooking, separate the stem and cap of shiitake mushrooms. The stems are tough, so slice them thinly to cook evenly.
- Shiitake mushrooms can stick to the pan, so using a non-stick pan will help them cook easily without breaking.
