A handy mushroom topping for a number of dishes, ranging from simple hiyayakko tofu to sautéed fish. This can also be added to vegetable or meat stir-fry as a quick taste and aroma booster. Use several different kinds of mushrooms for the best outcome.

<Notes>
- Keeps in the fridge for 5-6 days.
- Soy sauce in the above recipe is mainly for aroma and can be skipped.
- The top photo is an example of shiokoji kinoko (30 g; appprox. 1/7 of the above recipe) served with sautéed fish (60 g cod; fish was first lightly dusted with salt and pepper, moisture wiped off, coated with flour, and sautéed with olive oil). The topping works as a very light yet flavorful sauce. Depending on the dish, add a tiny amount of soy sauce, mix or top with julienned or grated ginger, or serve with lemon wedges.
- I use homemade shiokoji, which contains less sodium than most store-bought shiokoji.
- Whole recipe above: 159 calories; 6.8 g protein; 13.1 g fat; 12.2 g carbohydrate; 4.7 g net carbs; 224 mg sodium (with 50% reduced-sodium soy sauce; 262 mg with regular soy sauce); 0 mg cholesterol; 7.5 g fiber
