Crispy Fried Enoki Mushrooms - A Tasty Treat!

Are you looking for a fun and easy snack to make? Try deep frying some enoki mushrooms. These tasty fungi make the perfect crispy treat when fried up in a light batter.

Step 1: Harvesting Your Enoki Mushrooms

The first step is to gently remove your enoki mushrooms from the Mushroom Box. Be sure to handle them carefully to keep them intact. Use a knife to trim off the dirty bottom inch of the stems, then separate the mushrooms into smaller bunches about 1 inch wide at the base. Don't wash them - just brush off any dirt with a paper towel.

Making the Batter

Now it's time to make the batter to coat your mushrooms. In a bowl, mix together some flour, cornstarch, salt, and a pinch of pepper. Slowly add cold water while stirring until you have a smooth, thin batter. The cornstarch helps make the coating extra crispy!

Frying to Perfection

Heat some oil in a pot to 350°F. Dip the mushroom bunches into the batter, coating them all over. Let the extra batter drip off, then carefully place the battered mushrooms into the hot oil. Fry for 1-2 minutes until golden brown, then flip and fry the other side for 1 more minute. Remove the fried mushrooms and place them on a paper towel to drain off any excess oil.

Time to Enjoy!

Sprinkle your crispy fried enoki mushrooms with a little salt and serve them hot with your favorite dipping sauce. The light, crispy coating gives way to the tender, flavorful mushrooms inside. It's a tasty snack that's fun to make and even more fun to eat! So, what are you waiting for? Grab your Enoki Mushroom Box and start frying! These crispy, golden enoki mushrooms are sure to be a hit with the whole family.
