Japanese Mushrooms with Soy Sauce and Butter




To accompany the noodle salad with yuzu, we had K’s Japanese mushrooms with soy sauce and butter. As you already know by now, mushrooms go really well with soy sauce and butter. He’s made this before with just enoki mushrooms, but tonight, we added the shimeji mushrooms just because they were available at the market. You can use any variety of mushrooms.
