Dried shiitake mushrooms are very expensive. Make a bunch of dried shiitake mushrooms when they are in season and cheap!There are no hints, just dry out the shiitake mushrooms! That's all you need to do for these great tasting dried shiitake mushrooms! Recipe by Cooking S Papa

I harvested a lot of shiitake mushrooms that I grew myself. I wanted to eat them in a tasty way, so I tried combining them with a cucumber I had in the refrigerator. This was amazingly delicious! Ingredients with different textures really go together well!By coating the cucumber with flour before cooking it, it blends better with the seasonings and retains its moisture better for a juicy finish.Add some shichimi chili pepper mix as well as the black pepper if you like.

I like shiitake mushrooms and have been making this for ages.The mushrooms in the top photo are quite small. They shrink when cooked so choose thick mushrooms for a better taste.Don't over-fry them.You can use vegetable oil instead of butter if you like. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

When shiitake mushrooms are grilled, it is highly flavored and gets juicy without losing the delicious taste inherent in it. You can use this sauce with many dishes - pour this over the chicken, pork, vegetables or soak in this sauce and cook.

I love stir-fried yam with butter and soy sauce. I also added my favorite mushrooms.The tip is to cook the yam and mushrooms slowly over low-medium heat. If the heat is high, it will burn easily. Use your choice of mushrooms. For 2 servings. Recipe by Kinakorin

I adapted a dish I had once at an izakaya gastropub!I had a tofu steak that was so delicious and easy, that I copied her method for frying the tofu!You can use normal soy sauce, but if you use light soy sauce, the dish won't darken as much. It's best to drain the excess water from the tofu beforehand. For 4 servings. Recipe by minarin

I often used to make this dish when I lacked vegetables in my diet.The cooking time for spinach and shimeji mushrooms is just an estimate, so drain quickly when they have cooked.Drain the water well in Step 4. The flavor will be diluted if you don't do so. Recipe by Mizorecchifan

Last time, I made this dish with minced pork, so here is the sliced pork version. The minced pork was also delicious, so I made this dish with sliced pork this time.No tips in particular, but once you add the sake in Step 3, turn the heat to high to burn off the alcohol.After serving, you can also add butter, which makes it delicious.The photo is a side dish for a packed lunch.

This is a variation on my recipe Nagaimo Yam and Pork Stir Fry. Chopped pork tends to get tough if you stir fry it, so I treated it in a certain way to make it as tender as possible. Make it hearty with a boost of inexpensive mushrooms!Serve it to small children without the black pepper.If there are burned bits in the pan after taking out the meat (Step 4), wipe with a paper towel before proceeding. If you simmer it for too long at Step 6, the meat will get tough so be careful. For 2 servings. Recipe by Iku..

I wanted to make something healthy and tasty for my kids' lunch today. We ran out of rice, so I improvised by making a filling meal with tofu and veggies.
