Steamed king oyster mushrooms are dried slightly to remove moisture, then tossed with toasted perilla seed powder and seasonings to create a savory side dish with a chewy, meat-like texture perfect for rice.

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Avoid slicing the king oyster mushrooms too thin, as this reduces volume and results in a light, insubstantial texture. Keep them slightly thick and long for best results.
  • Immediately after steaming, lightly sauté the mushrooms in the pan to remove excess surface moisture—this is key to achieving a chewy, meat-like texture.
  • Do not discard the flavorful kombu infused with natural umami. Slicing it finely and mixing it with the mushrooms enhances depth of flavor, acting as a natural seasoning.
  • The rich aroma of perilla seed powder combined with the nutty taste of partially crushed sesame seeds creates a deep, savory, and satisfying mouthfeel.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy mushroom dishes with a chewy, meat-like texture.
  • Fans of clean, traditional Korean side dishes with rich nuttiness from perilla seed and the natural umami of kombu.
