Awesome Mushroom Munchy - Bunashimeji

Bunashimeji Mushroom Munchie

I have this nearly every morning for breakfast.

It is exceedingly simple if you have all of the ingredients.

Take a bundle of Bunashimeji mushrooms, trim off the bottom "roots"

Put that into a microwaveable container (I use a small wooden bowl).

Put about a tablespoon or so of Kappo Shirodashi

Put about a teaspoon of strong lime or lemon juice

Cover the bowl in plastic wrap.

Microwave for two minutes.

The result tastes much like meat and is completely satisfying as a meal.

I figure it has about 35 calories total.

For the citrus, I use "Citron" sauce, from a nearby Asian market.

Kappo Shirodashi is made of Soy sauce, bonito extract, mushroom extract, seaweed extract, sugar, salt, sweet sake and monosodium glutamate. Basically, it's "fish sauce".
