How to Make It

  1. Toss the mushrooms with the tamari, honey and sesame oil.
  2. Sear in a hot pan until deeply browned and glossy, 8 minutes.

  5. Top with scallion and sesame seeds.

About This Recipe

Bulgogi's sweet-savory soy-and-sugar marinade works beautifully on meaty mushrooms, which brown and caramelize just like the beef. Use tamari instead of soy sauce to keep it gluten-free.
