I am confused. Please tell me what to do with the shiitake mushrooms that I cooked for five minutes in the frying pan. I made the mushroom broth with the domestic mushrooms. I have no idea when I’m supposed to do with the shiitake mushrooms. Can you please clarify? Thank you.
I likewise felt puzzled by what to do with the sautéed shiitake mushrooms. I ultimately incorporated them post-purée of the “mushroom broth” and it made for a pleasant textural experience. On the next go, however, I’d like to try substituting sour cream in place of yogurt to create a more full-bodied texture. The flavor pallet is unusual, though ultimately enjoyable when paired with a hearty sourdough roll.
This was the worst recipe. It’s incomplete and the flavors were way off. The sherry overpowered everything. Gross.
