Maitake Mushrooms and Condiments

Method

Preparation and Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Caramelize the Onion

    Slice the onion thinly. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes until the onions are golden brown and caramelized. Remove from heat and let cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Caramelized Onion Mayo

    In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, cooled caramelized onions, garlic powder, and sugar. Mix well until combined and set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Maitake Mushrooms

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add the maitake mushrooms, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and slightly crispy.

  4. 4

    Make the Apple Cider Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Plate the sautéed maitake mushrooms and drizzle with apple cider vinaigrette. Serve with a generous dollop of caramelized onion mayo on the side.
