BAKED MUSHROOMS (WITH SOY AND BUTTER)

BAKED MUSHROOMS (WITH SOY AND BUTTER) image

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb mushrooms. My favorites for this recipe are bunashimeji, shiitake, enoki, and/or portobello
2 tbsp salted butter, cut in 1/2
dash of soy sauce
few leaves fresh parsley
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Wash and dry the mushrooms. For *dried shiitake mushrooms* read below. Use 2 sheets of aluminium foil (enough so you can fold the top) and lay them on top of one another (double layers). Put 2 tbsp butter and lay the mushrooms on top. Fold and close the foil wrap. Put in the oven and cook for about 15 minutes. Sprinkle fresh parsley leaves and about 1 tsp soy sauce. Season with salt and pepper and serve while still hot. * Dried Shiitake Mushrooms* Soak them in a little water, just enough to barely cover them. Soaking them in too much water will take away a lot of their flavor. Let them soak for about 10 minutes. Squeeze excess water and save water to use in a mushroom risotto, spaghetti, soup, etc..*
