On Lion's Mane, the Deliciousness Thereof
I have a new favorite food! Today we picked up some lion's mane mushrooms at the farmers' market in the center of town. After soaking it in salt and water, rinsing it, and then wringing the water out of it (yes, apparently that's OK), I sautéed it with butter and peanut oil over medium heat, as instructed by this website. Delicious! The flesh is soft and thread-like, similar to crab meat, and the taste is a bit like lobster, only less fishy. Now I'm even more excited about my mushroom-growing experiment.

I've eaten a different Hericium and found it pretty boring. Maybe the salt water soak is the trick.
ReplyDeleteI've read that it needs to be young to be delicious. That, and I cooked it in a gallon of butter.
