KOREAN MUSHROOM RECIPES

Steps:

• Place a large (12-inch) skillet on medium-high heat. Add olive oil and onion, season with salt, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until softened. Add the mushrooms, thyme and garlic, and stir to combine. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, leaving it undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes at a time before stirring, to allow the mushrooms to caramelize.
• Pour in the wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom, then cook for about 1 minute. Add the vegetable stock and soy sauce, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the liquid has reduced and is slightly thickened.
• Take the pan off the heat, and stir in the mustard and crème fraîche. Taste, and season with salt and black pepper. Dust with paprika, scatter with parsley and serve with your choice of mashed potatoes, wide egg noodles or rice.

Steps:

• Cut off any excess fat from the short ribs then thinly slice the beef and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Place in a large bowl or in a plastic resealable bag.
• In a blender or food processor, blend the soy sauce, mirin, sugar, sesame oil, garlic, scallions and ginger. Pour half of the sauce over the short ribs, ensuring all the beef is covered. Seal tightly and marinate the short ribs in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours and up to 24 hours.
• Place the other half of the marinade in a pan and reduce over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thick. Place in a serving bowl and reserve to drizzle on the tacos.
• For the slaw: Place the cabbage, daikon, cilantro and scallions together in a medium to large bowl.
• For the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, soy sauce, mirin and Sriracha. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Place the dressing in the fridge until ready to use.
• For the taco assembly: Heat your griddle to high. Flash cook the meat while simultaneously caramelizing the marinade. Place your short ribs on the griddle. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes and flip. Cook an additional 3 minutes, then wrap the meat in foil and set aside.
• Grill up your tortillas. Flip after 45 seconds. Grill for another 45 seconds and remove.
• On the grilled tortillas, pile some Korean slaw, dressing, beef, reserved and reduced marinade and extra Sriracha to taste. Then, chow down.
