I had a pack (10-12 mushrooms) taking a space in my fridge for a few days.
Then an idea of mixing these mushrooms with cabbage came to my mind. Cabbage and shiitake mushrooms cooked with bean curds is a part of Japanese cuisine. I did not have any bean curds, so my ‘japanese’ dish had two main ingredients only. The taste was terrific anyway.
Soak shiitake mushrooms in cold water for 30 mins before cutting them. While mushrooms are soaking, cut the cabbage. Don’t forget to rinse the cabbage prior to shredding.
