Breath of the Wild #17: Copious Mushroom Skewer

Ingredients: Any four different Mushrooms

Description: "Fans of fungal cuisine can't resist this simple mushroom-skewer dish. Very filling."


Back when i did the original mushroom skewer I went on a mission to my favourite chinese grocery, as well as big tesco, and got a mountain of different mushrooms. For this recipe im picking out a couple king oyster mushrooms, some oyster mushrooms, some lions mane mushrooms, any leftover shiitake (from the first recipe), and uh... whatever this other long one is. I don't even know. That's at least 4 types!


They're sharing the marinade with the original recipe too. Which was like soy sauce, chilli, garlic, etc.


Assembled and ready! 

Here they are getting grilled.

Sorry shiitake, but oyster mushroom is actually the superior grilling shroom. It's not as easy to get on the stick, but it crisps up real nice and picks up tons of flavour, is less earthy. The lion's mane was weirdly sour, almost lemony. the king oyster mushroom is gently mallowy. overall, they're still all largely mushroom flavoured. I think i already get tired of eating just mushrooms after one skewer, the variety doesn't make up for that. If you want to impress a vegan, give them one skewer with a nice bowl of rice or some flatbread.
