  1. I love fungi in general so much. Such good friends AND good food!! It took my best friend in intermediate, a lovely girl born on a boat headed from Bali to New Zealand, letting me try some of her gochujang enoki to win me over on eating mushrooms. She's really responsible for my love for Asian food and my interest in Asian countries and cultures, in general– from shaobing to rendang to chana masala, she was always so keen to share and I was always so keen to eat.

  2. My mom told me that if I want to cook mushrooms, it goes BEFORE the oil. Always. You want the moisture escapes from the mushroom first, so it retains bits of its crunchiness and coats them with oil. If oil comes to contact first, it will lock the moisture in the shroom and leave it a sad, smelly, and soggy mushroom. I tried and no longer disappointed in mushrooms.

    Ya don't hate veggies, you just don't cook em right

  3. It's a misnomer. Mushrooms are like sponges and you can squeeze water out of them just like a sponge. However they are full of water sponges are very absorbent unless they are full of water if you soak a soaked sponge nothing happens. Don't believe me? Measure the weight of some mushrooms, then soak them in water wait a while take them out of the water then measure them again. They won't weigh much more than they did before.
