Introduction
Recreate the impressive taste experienced at WAGYUMAFIA. These exquisite grilled shiitake mushrooms are soaked in the savory richness of beef fat and finished simply with Ajishio seasoning.
Step 1
Trim the shiitake stems and remove the tough ends (the woody tips). Cut the remaining stems into bite-sized pieces.
Step 2
Place 10g of beef fat in a frying pan. Arrange the shiitake mushrooms with the caps facing down (gills up) and cook over medium heat, allowing them to absorb the melting fat.
Step 3
Add the shiitake stems to the empty spaces in the pan, cooking slowly while ensuring all pieces are well-coated with the beef fat.
Step 4
Flip the mushrooms over and continue cooking. Heat until beads of moisture ('sweat') appear on the gills, giving them a glossy appearance.
Step 5
Sprinkle a suitable amount of Ajishio onto the top (outside) of the shiitake caps.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
💡 Using beef fat instead of vegetable oil adds a luxurious richness like Wagyu beef, which combines perfectly with the umami of the shiitake for a far superior taste.
⚠️ The ultimate sign that they are done is when moisture (or 'sweat') beads up on the gills of the shiitake. Make sure not to miss this timing.
✨ Since this is a simple dish, using 'Ajishio' (a seasoning salt containing umami enhancers) is essential to perfectly balance the flavor.
