King Oyster Mushroom Rice Bowl
I do love mushrooms and the best mushroom I have ever tasted was my grandmother’s meaty Shiitake. She used to grow Shiitake in a wood near her house and my family was lucky to enjoy the harvest. Whatever way they were cooked, those mushrooms were so chewy and crunchy and delicious. This dish is one way to enjoy those thick meaty mushrooms. I first used Australian-grown Shiitake, that are quite pricy, but the texture was very wrong. I think King Oyster mushrooms are best suited for this dish.
