Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tablespoon mirin or substitute 1 tablespoon vinegar and a 1/2 teaspoon of granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon water

  • Mix together in a medium bowl the soy sauce, mirin, vinegar, syrup, water, and toasted sesame oil. Remove the stem from the mushroom and scrape out the gills. Cut the mushroom into slices about ¼-inch wide. Place the mushroom slices in the bowl and toss to coat in marinade. Let sit for up to 30 minutes or use immediately. Heat a pan over medium heat. Arrange the mushroom slices in a single layer and pour over any remaining marinade. Cook for several minutes on each side until the slices are browned and softened.
