Double Pepper Golden Needle Mushroom

Double Pepper Golden Needle Mushroom

This steamed enoki mushrooms recipe is a spicy, savory delight that’s quick to prepare yet bursting with flavor. Tender enoki mushrooms are steamed to perfection, retaining their delicate crunch, then topped with a vibrant mix of wild pepper and dried chili for a fiery kick. The magic lies in the sauce—a balanced blend of soy sauce, cooking wine, oyster sauce, and vinegar—poured over the mushrooms for a rich umami taste without overpowering saltiness. A final drizzle of hot oil enhances the aromas, while fresh scallions add color and freshness. Perfect as a side or light main, this dish is a must-try for spice lovers, with the option to add extra vinegar for a tangy twist. Simple, healthy, and irresistibly delicious!
