Recipe
Cooking tips
- Inserting a wooden chopstick into the mushroom stem and using a peeler makes it safe and easy to create consistent, noodle-like strips.
- King oyster mushrooms have high water content, so they steam well in the microwave without added water or a cover, and won't burn.
- Perilla seed powder, key to the savory flavor, goes rancid easily, so it's best to store it in the freezer.
- Don't discard the squeezed mushroom liquid; use it as a stock base in soybean paste stew or soups for added depth of flavor.
Recommended for
- Those who want to make a quick and easy side dish using only a microwave, without any stovetop cooking.
- Those who want to enjoy a chewy, meat-like texture and maximum savory flavor from mushrooms.
- Those looking for a mild yet umami-rich, healthy side dish.
