Best Grilled Shiitake Oak Mushrooms Recipes

GRILLED SHIITAKES WITH GINGER AND SCALLIONS

Steps:

• Prepare grill for cooking over medium-hot charcoal (moderate heat for gas). (If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. When Charcoal turns grayish white (about 15 minutes from lighting), hold your hand 5 inches above grill rack to determine heat for charcoal as follows: Hot: When you can hold your hand there for 1 to 2 seconds; Medium-hot: 3 to 4 seconds; Low: 5 to 6 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then, if necessary, reduce to heat specified in recipe.)
• While coals are lighting, stir together Sherry, soy sauce, ginger, vinegar, sugar, and 1/2 tablespoon oil in a large bowl until sugar is dissolved.
• Toss mushrooms with salt, pepper, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil, then grill on lightly oiled grill rack, covered only if using a gas grill, turning over occasionally, until lightly browned and tender, 4 to 6 minutes total. Transfer mushrooms with tongs to bowl with sauce, then add scallions and toss until combined.

GRILLED SHIITAKE WITH PONZU

• Place the mushroom caps on a broiler pan or grill rack, gill side down if you're using a broiler or gill side up if you're using a grill. Place the pan or rack close to the heat. Cook the mushrooms until the tops of the caps are dry. Turn over the mushrooms, and cook them until the insides become wet with the mushrooms' own juice. If you're using a grill, turn over the mushrooms again. Spoon ½ teaspoon sake into each cap. Cook the mushrooms until the sake is bubbling.
