Ingredients

  • 500g fresh oyster mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons white miso paste
  • 2 tablespoons wildflower honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon grated ginger
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1/4 cup sliced scallions
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

1
Begin by gently tearing the oyster mushroom clusters into bite-sized 'wing' pieces, ensuring you do not wash them to maintain crispness; simply wipe clean with a damp cloth.
2
In a large mixing bowl, toss the mushrooms with cornstarch until every crevice is evenly coated, shaking off any excess powder.
3
Heat a high-smoke point oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet to 350°F (175°C) and fry the mushrooms in small batches for 3-4 minutes until golden and shattered-glass crisp.
4
While they drain on a wire rack, whisk together the miso, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil in a small saucepan over medium heat, simmering for 2 minutes until it transforms into a glossy, thick glaze.
5
Toss the crispy mushrooms in the glaze immediately before serving, garnishing generously with fresh scallions and toasted sesame seeds for an authentic umami-packed finish.
