What Are Enoki Mushrooms?

Enoki mushrooms are delicate and thin mushrooms with a mild flavor and crisp texture. They are versatile and work beautifully in soups, stews, stir-fries, or even omelets. Enoki mushrooms are commonly used in Korean, Chinese, and Japanese cooking.

Where to Buy Enoki Mushrooms?

You can find enoki mushrooms at most grocery stores, though specialty food stores like Whole Foods tend to have the best selection. Asian food markets often carry them, and they are readily available online as well.

How to Season Enoki Mushrooms

The mushrooms are seasoned with garlic, low-sodium soy sauce, and freshly grated ginger. Theyre cooked in sesame oil, which adds a deep umami flavor that pairs perfectly with their mild taste.

How to Store Enoki Mushrooms

Store raw enoki mushrooms in a loosely covered in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator. They should stay fresh for up to a week. It's important to remove them from the plastic packaging, as the moisture inside can cause them to spoil quickly.

Once cooked, enoki mushrooms can be stored in an airtight in the fridge for up to three days.

Ingredients

• 8 ounces enoki mushrooms
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 large clove garlic, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce (such as Bragg)
• teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger

Directions

1. Cut the bottom 2 inches off the enoki mushrooms and discard. Gently separate the mushroom strands.
2. Heat the sesame oil in a medium-sized nonstick skillet over medium heat.
3. Add the chopped garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
4. Add the enoki mushrooms to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms begin to wilt, about 2 minutes.
5. Stir in the soy sauce and grated ginger, tossing to coat the mushrooms evenly.
6. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Serve immediately.
