Braised Mushroom with Dashi
March 12th, 2011Recipes, 30-Minute Meals, Recipes, Japanese Recipes, Recipes11 Comments
I love mushrooms for as long as I can remember, even when I was a little kid. I love mushrooms of all sorts, shiitake, button, enoki, straw mushrooms—canned or fresh. One of the great things about the United States is that I can get fresh mushrooms easily. They are readily available at the market…
Whenever I get some fresh shiitake mushrooms at the market, I always make this Japanese-style braised mushrooms with dashi and mirin. The end result is a very simple side dish that is absolutely umamilicious. You will know what I mean if you attempt this braised mushroom recipe at home.

This week, both white and brown beech mushrooms (buna shimeji mushrooms) are…

As much as I love cooking, I don’t—and can’t—cook every day. If you are a home cook, I am sure you understand what I mean. Some days, you wake up, open the refrigerator, look at the ingredients you have, and your mind just goes blank. You either feel like you run out of cooking ideas, don’t know what to cook,…

I’m a new reader of your site…love all your recipes. Never thought about braising mushrooms with dashi, I’m sure it’s delicious!
Hi Bee,
Thanks for the recipe – I love all types of mushrooms too and always on the lookout for new and delicious ways to cook them. This sounds like a winner and will be on the menu soon!
This looks so delish Bee. Reminds me of delicious braised mushroom varieties I had in Malaysia :)
Wonderful looking mushroom dish! This looks simple and yummy!
ooh. I have been looking for some tasty side dishes. This is definitely being bookmarked.
I also love my mushrooms; quite a meaty texture too, which is great when you want something with a bit more feist but would like to cut down on animal protein. I also like to braise mushrooms with fish sauce and pepper.
I love mushrooms too but never thought of cooking mushrooms this way, bookmarked!
This looks so yummy! I’ve never used braising as a cooking method before, but it seems simple enough.
I just started browsing your site and am really enjoying what I see. I’m a pescetarian who loves Asian cuisine, and I’m always looking for new fish or vegetarian recipes. I love Japanese and Thai, and haven’t really tried any other Asian cuisine except Chinese. Could you suggest another Asian cuisine to try?
Simple yet tasty. I like mushrooms a lot. Thanks.
Oh my! This looks wonderful, plus I just bought a big bag of dried shiitakes from the place I normally buy my tea leaves. They were out of the tea I normally buy, so I felt bad for leaving without buying something, and there they were in a big apothecary jar. Now I can try this recipe with them and get umami-riffic!
Hey Ivy – I haven’t tried this with dried shiitakes, but it worked wonders with fresh ones. Let me know how it turns out. :)
