Shitake Mushrooms And Zucchini Recipes

SHITAKE MUSHROOMS AND ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet. Add mushrooms and saute until deep brown, about 7 minutes.
• Add garlic and saute another 2 minutes.
• Add zucchini, 2 T. soy sauce, and 1 T. water. Saute until zucchini is tender and becoming translucent.
• In a small bowl, mix (scant) 1 T. cornstarch and 1 T. soy sauce. Pour over vegetables and mix quickly. This will thicken up quickly. (Add a bit of water if needed to help the sauce flow a bit.).

GARLIC SAUTEED SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Combine butter and garlic in saute pan. Heat until butter is melted and garlic starts to sizzle, about 30 seconds. Do not let garlic brown.
• Add mushrooms and saute 3 to 4 minutes, turning until lightly browned. Season to taste with salt and pepper, sprinkle with parsley and serve.

FETTUCCINE WITH FENNEL AND SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the mushrooms and saute over medium heat until they begin to wilt. Add the garlic, stir for a few seconds, then stir in the fennel. Cook until the fennel begins to soften, about five minutes. Cover the pan and cook over low heat until the vegetables are tender, about another 10 minutes.
• Bring four quarts of water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine for three minutes, then drain.
• Uncover the skillet and stir in the cream, sun-dried tomato and fennel tops. Cook over high heat for a minute or two, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, toss to combine the ingredients, then divide between two plates and serve with Parmesan cheese on the side.
