Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp oil (15 mL)
  • 1 lb button mushrooms (cleaned, 453 g)
  • 2 Tbsp miso paste (30 g)
  • 1 Tbsp butter (can substitute dairy-free, 15 g)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar (can substitute lemon juice, 5 mL)

Instructions

  1. Prep Mushrooms: Clean the button mushrooms thoroughly and cut any large mushrooms in half to ensure they are bite-sized for even cooking and texture.
  2. Cook Mushrooms: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook them, stirring often, as they release their moisture and the liquid evaporates. This process takes about 10 to 15 minutes and helps concentrate their flavor while softening them.
  3. Add Flavors: Stir in 2 tablespoons of miso paste, 1 tablespoon of butter, and the minced garlic. Continue cooking the mixture for 3 minutes or until the garlic becomes fragrant, allowing the ingredients to meld and the mushrooms to absorb the savory flavors.
  4. Finish: Remove the pan from the heat and add 1 teaspoon of rice vinegar. Stir well, scraping up any flavorful bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. The vinegar adds a touch of acidity that balances the richness. Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute dairy-free butter or margarine to make this recipe vegan-friendly.
  • If rice vinegar is not available, fresh lemon juice works well as a bright acidic substitute.
  • For a deeper flavor, try using shiitake or cremini mushrooms instead of button mushrooms.
  • Serve these mushrooms as a side dish, or toss them with noodles or rice for a quick vegetarian main meal.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat gently.
