Beautiful side dishes! Shimeji mushrooms look like they are the parents of Enoki mushrooms! 😁 You were very creative with the different applications. Also, I have never seen someone dip tempura into salt, so I will have to try that. I'm excited to try these dishes, thanks for the careful and thoughtful explanations.
Not a fan of mushrooms because of their "texture" but after adding them to my pizza and spaghetti, I changed my mind and started adding them to miso and omelette. These side dishes look yummy.
Mmmm...Will definitely try these. Always looking for new Japanese veggie dishes (usually easier to cook :D). Really hoping for a kabocha korokke recipe one day 🤞
We don't have nearly this much variety in fresh mushrooms, here, but I might find some of them dried at the health food store. Can't wait to see how that turns out. Thank you, Taiji, for more good, healthy ideas!
Thanks so much for sharing these! I absolutely love mushrooms 🤩. There aren't a lot of vegetarian japanese recipes out there, so really appreciate it. 😍
All of your mushroom dishes looked simply delicious, Taiji. Mushrooms are a favourite autumnal food of mine as they are so versatile, with a distinct, earthy taste of nature. I will definitely try these dishes for myself. Thank you!😊
Funny how I never liked mushrooms as a child because they 'squeak' when you bite them, sometimes. But when you were cutting the trumpet mushroom, they did the familiar squeak and I love them now! Thank you for sharing this wonderful side dishes! We get all of them here in Australia except for the Japanese ones indigenous to there like the Mentaki. And I didn't know you couldn't eat the shiitake mushrooms raw because they're poisonous! So glad I never found out the hard way and ended up in the hospital!
Hello Taiji, I like how you put several side dishes featuring the same main ingredient in one episode. Great reference for me to look for cooking ideas for my family! Great job!🎉
Until a few years ago, the only mushrooms I could find in my country was white "champinions", now we find also Shiitake and Enoki, sometimes oyster mushrooms.Thank you for the recepies! Greetings from Romania!
Taiji I like to see your video. I cook only two type of mushroom. But you cook so different types of mushroom in easy process. I will try to cook. Thank you.
Great channel. Thank you so much for all the amazing recipes. Finally I getting into Japanese cooking and can't wait to try out more of the good stuff. Also appreciated your other content about Japanese culture. Looking forward to go to Japan again in January.
Shimeji mushrooms are called Beech mushrooms here (California). They come in brown or white. Shitake are very common here in California, (called, Shitaki!), as are maitake mushrooms (also called their Japanese name) as are trumpet mushrooms. A quality market will have them, or a quality home delivery service. Safeway may have have shiitake but probably just the 3 sizes of portobello of which only the large size is called portobello, & they have much less flavour than non-pasture portobello. My problem with trumpet mushrooms is getting all the dirt out of them. Oyster mushrooms easy to find plus easy kits to grow your own at home - just a box the size of a shoebox that you water and like magic, oyster mushrooms! Quite fun actually. I’ve seen those thin white mushrooms a lot at the Berkeley Bowl market, but never knew what they were for previously.
Hi Taiji...I love your channel, I watch it often. I started watching because you remind me of my son who passed away a few years ago but now I watch because I like your recipes. Keep up the good work "- )
Shared with a friend who is vegetarian. I am sure she will be happy with some of these! I really want to try to find Shimeji mushrooms in the USA so I can see about them in miso soup. Love mushrooms!
These all look so good. I do wonder why the one mushroom isn't available in Japan, since Japan has soooo many mushrooms! Just an interesting little tidbit, that made me wonder. By the way, the verb is "marinate" and the noun is "marinade." So you use marinade to marinate your ingredients. (Not a big deal but you're a bit of a perfectionist and I know you care! And hey, you speak three languages, so you are light years ahead of me, an American who speaks one language fluently and three languages so-so - Spanish, French, and American Sign Language.) Thanks so much for another fantastic video - they all look scrumptious and I so love mushrooms!
Hi, and thank you so much for your correction! I do appreciate any and all constructive critiques, since I do care about raising the quality of my contents! wow, I did not know that. perhaps if had the culinary training, I would have known, but since I have learned primarily from other cooking videos, hence through the ears, I thought they were the same words!! (the end -t and -d sounds very similar, unless you listen very carefully.) so thank you again!! will correct it in coming videos! (although I dont use marinade that often... lol)
Thank you for show us different types of mushrooms dishes. I love then in omelette or in mushroom paella. Please, can you explain recipes for bento boxes? I wish you peace, love and health from Asturias, in the north of Spain.
Wht an awesome video. All 🍄 lovers will go gaga over ths. Hearing the crunch of the tempura mushrooms 👌👌. Thnx a ton for ths simple but awesome video. Fortunately we get all these mushrooms in india bangalore. Will defi try thm.
Taijisan, very interesting video. So many types of mushrooms. Wonder how you store them? You prepare more than you’re going to eat. What do you do with the rest?
Really enjoyed this video. All of the mushrooms you used are available in my local area, including maitake mushrooms, even though I live in a small town. Great ideas on how to cook different side dishes. I like to use a mixture of shimeji, maitake and shitake in Takikomi gohan, though gobo is difficult to get in my area. I have to buy it in the larger cities.
Many thanks for your hard work. Hope to get a response from you and maybe you’ll implement these 2 suggestions in the future. PS. some other viewers object to these suggestions, which is fine. However, I ask that you personally respond. Insights on what viewers “think” you meant are of no use. I prefer not to receive those.
Some months ago, I ran out of Ponzu sauce. My local grocery store stopped carrying it. So I looked up how to make it on my own. The recipe I found had a ton of difficult to find ingredients. So I gave up. Lemon juice and soy? That's it? So easy...
Hello, may I ask what kind of soy sauce is used, sweet, sour, salty or otherwise ? I bought four kinds of mushrooms today, was planning to make a dish with them, then saw your video and like to follow your recipe. 🖖😎👍 ❗
Oh! You may have just explained why shiitaki mushrooms are so unpleasant for my body! I had never heard or read that they were poisonous uncooked, or could cause a rash. I had only eaten them in restaurants, where I assume they were properly prepared. Now I understand the digestive upset.
yes, those are also sold very commonly in the supermarket, but not at all incorporated in our cooking. those are only bought and used when making western dishes.
Until I make these, in a fortnight probably, you can taste different flavours in mushrooms? I think I cook them way too long. Would this be a whole meal in Japan?
It appears that RUclips Comments only keep positive comments. Apparently there is an automatic editor that deletes critical comments. Comments may be placed in a holding pattern for later release. This is unfortunate and certainly a form of censorship.
yes I bought them in Japan, but you can find also in amazon. the brand "Kyoetsu" makes inexpensive but quality and also washable Kimonos. look up in amazon; Kyoetsu Kimono.
Suggestions on English usage are made to improve your very good product. Some have been posted previously. Garlic “masher” is actually known as a garlic press. MATCH - previously mentioned that food “pairs well” with another food item. It does not “match”. This term is used consistently in many of your videos and is really incorrect. Match is typically used with teams that are matched in ability, or entities that have matching skills. You may want to look it up in dictionary.
I LOVE mushrooms! Great ideas. Unfortunately they are a little expensive here (Brazil). I've never seen as tempura, in most restaurants we use to soak the tempura pieces in a souce prepared with dashi, shoyu, water, and mirin. If I'm home, I add daikon oroshi (grated turnip?), seems to reduce the greese. One very common side dish here, even in non jap restaurants, is shimeji with butter, shoyu, sake+mirin and scallion. I always prepare when we have jap meal at home. It's SO easy that I can't understand why it's so difficult to find a reasonable prep - it's one of the rare dishes that mine is better than the others LOL.
Your English is outstanding and the pronunciation is clear to understand. The organization of food items in your videos make them easy to follow.

Mushrooms are my favourite food, arigato for the simple and delicious recipes Taijichan! SUper!

Great video! I'll definitely be trying each of these out. I never used to like mushrooms but Japanese food has a way of making them delicious.
Oyster mushrooms are very popular in my country, thanks for the recipe
yey! glad you like the recipe!
It is decided. Tomorrow I'll make a mushroom dish ! Thank you for the delicious recipes! 🍄✨💕
We don't have nearly this much variety in fresh mushrooms, here, but I might find some of them dried at the health food store. Can't wait to see how that turns out. Thank you, Taiji, for more good, healthy ideas!
wooo, making these with dried mushrooms might not be so ideal...
especially the tempura and grilled. but the other two might work.
Excellent ... good for vegans, and your adjustments make it helpful to new plant based eaters. You are wonderful!
Thanks so much for sharing these! I absolutely love mushrooms 🤩. There aren't a lot of vegetarian japanese recipes out there, so really appreciate it. 😍

Hope you enjoy
will definitely try all this dishes, they all look too good^^
have you thought about doing a video about a pumpkin/squash recipe?
Yummmmmyyyyy💖💖💖
Thank you… so inspiring 🥰
Taijisan, very interesting video. So many types of mushrooms. Wonder how you store them? You prepare more than you’re going to eat. What do you do with the rest?
mushrooms need to be stored in the fridge, otherwise they go bad pretty fast.
Awesome videos! I’m learning a lot. Why do you not use a rice cooker?
Really enjoyed this video. All of the mushrooms you used are available in my local area, including maitake mushrooms, even though I live in a small town.

I've read that mushrooms actually produce their own vitamin D! Maybe that has something to do with why they are considered an sutumn dish?
Great video! Does Japan also have the white mushrooms (agaricus bisporus) so common in the U.S.?
yes, those are also sold very commonly in the supermarket, but not at all incorporated in our cooking. those are only bought and used when making western dishes.
Guten Appetit😊😋
danke!!
Until I make these, in a fortnight probably, you can taste different flavours in mushrooms? I think I cook them way too long. Would this be a whole meal in Japan?
Are you living in Germany, or do they have Euro-shops in Japan?
What kind of flour do you use for the tempura?
They make vegan butter you can use instead of cow butter
👍👍👍👍👍
thanx!
Shiitake is my favorites. Mushrooms are very expensive and not easy to find them I think it's seasonal grown?...
well, nowadays these are all farm grown, so can be grown out of the season, but naturally they grow in autumn.

Hi Taiji,
You wear 2 or 3 “house” kimonos in your videos. Did you buy them in Japan and brought them to Germany? Are they available online?
yes I bought them in Japan, but you can find also in amazon.
the brand "Kyoetsu" makes inexpensive but quality and also washable Kimonos. look up in amazon; Kyoetsu Kimono.

Why you do not put your salt in the batter?
you mean in the Tempura batter?
Tempura batter is never flavored.
