      Isnt the bitter taste the medicinal properties of the mushroom though? So basically this is a way to eliminate the medicinal value just to make it taste good

    2:02 Japanese chef, 'Made with Lau' suggested soaking the dried shiitake mushrooms for 10 min maximum with warm water as the mushrooms will lose flavour if soaked for too long.

      If you are skeptical you can try both ways and you can come to a conclusion and decide for yourself.

    For everyone struggling with smelly and funky dried shiitake even after this washing process:
    Roast them in the oven at highest setting for about 20 minutes and remove every shiitake which is still soft/slimy/spongy.
    Prepare them as desired afterwards, they'll taste much more intense + without funky aromas.

    • @1228cooking
      @1228cooking  11 місяців тому +2

      I think if you have smelly and funky shiitake aromas, you shouldnt eat them and should be discarded.

    I have a question, is it safe to eat dehydrated shiitake? My brother tasted two of them yesterday and seems fine today
    I just tasted two also, hopefully I’ll be fine too. 😅😂
    I got mine from a place that sells spices, not labeled. My only concern there is whether I should wash them or not.

    • @1228cooking
      @1228cooking  14 днів тому +1

    I've cooked shitaki mushrooms with my vegetables stirfry but the Mushrooms are mostly kind of rubber when I chewed it. I soaked them overnight, sliced them thinly and add it to my stirfry. How long is the best to cook shitaki Mushroom to a soft texture after dehydrating? I love the flavor but it seems to be tricky when cooking this kind of Mushroom. Thanks for answering question. 🙂 😊

    How long are the mushrooms sauteed? If it's just until they're coated then will that be just a couple of minutes?
    Also, how long can dried shiitake be kept? I haven't done well with similar recipes although I know that the results can be exquisite. I proved that with my two successes. I'm beginning to think that my using old shiitakes might have been the problem.

    I think this is a good way however, the corn starch is an unnecessary step and a waste of corn starch lol.
    The major key is after soaking and cleaning they have to be covered and braised in seasoned water for at least 1 hour until water level is reduced.

      Get rid of dirt and other contaminants. If you dont do this you still have to soak in water with a few changes of water to be ready to cook. No it wont make you sick.
