Mushrooms Art Comes To My Plate

in #hive-1205862 years ago

Mushrooms are an expensive version of chicken in my village. We've always thought mushrooms were special especially if they were grown traditionally.

Let me invite you to enjoy a presentation of food made from mushrooms, served with a slightly sour and fresh tomato puree sauce.

The things that nature could do in the past make me really miss them all. For example, I have various types of edible mushrooms that grow after the rain in agricultural fields. Or edible mushrooms that emerge from the haystack after harvest. All of that is beauty to be missed.

Types of edible mushrooms are currently - bred by farmers themselves, and it is very rare here to find mushrooms that are grown naturally. So I had to look for edible mushrooms in traditional markets. While in the modern market, several types of mushrooms are usually served for Japanese dishes or Western dishes.


I've often shared dish recipes here on HIVE using oyster mushroom ingredients, such as soup and stir-fried dishes. But, today I'm gonna share with you foodies oyster mushrooms with tomato puree recipe.


Behind The Plate of Mushroom Art


Well, I tried my best to make food art with edible mushrooms ingredients. But it's not easy for sure. I can only get supplies of local oyster mushrooms. That was a challenge for me.

That's because the texture of the local oyster mushrooms will be mushy when cooked later in my recipe. But it is the challenges that become challenges and challenges that make us grow. So, I gave myself a challenge.


I use additional ingredients as garnishes that will help the appearance of the final result. I use cucumber and celery as the garnishes. I hope you enjoy all my presentation through my food. Stay tuned!


THE INGREDIENTS

500 grams of mushrooms


A large tomato or two small tomatoes. You can use canned tomatoes if you have those in stock. Use about 150-200 grams of canned tomatoes.


5 cloves of garlic.


3 cm of ginger.


1 teaspoon of salt.


1 teaspoon of pepper


1/2 teaspoon of sugar (optional if the tomato sauce is too sour because the tomatoes are sour.


Water to taste if the tomato puree still lacks water.


For garnishes: cucumber and celery.



COOKING INSTRUCTIONS


STEP 1


Finely chop garlic and ginger. You can use copper or just using knife as usually. But for me, I save time by putting all the garlic and ginger in the chopper. Even though I used a manual chopper, it saved quite a bit of time and kept my hands from smelling like onions.

At least the chopper will help those women who want to also date after cooking. I'm serious about this though. Ehehe. It's because I often have a garlic smell in my fingers, and that's also what made me end up buying a copper to deal with this problem. Just work for me.


STEP 2


Because in this recipe I use tomato puree, so I have to make tomato puree first. Using a chopper, I made a tomato puree. The color is not totally red, but I love this color.

If you use canned tomatoes, you don't need to make tomato puree anymore, because usually the tomatoes will be softer in texture and we only need to heat them for a while to make a good puree for sauces.


STEP 3

After preparing the washed mushrooms, it's time to cook them. Heat a little oil for frying. Then stir-fry chopped garlic and ginger. Keep stirring until it smells nice and is a nice golden brown color.

STEP 4


Add tomato puree. Keep stirring and don't forget to add salt, pepper. And here I added a little sugar because I used sour tomatoes. Anyway, I rarely find sweet tomatoes in my area.

STEP 5


Add mushrooms after the sauce becomes boil. Cook the mushrooms for about 5 minutes, or according to your preference about the texture of mushrooms.

STEP 6


Remove until mushrooms correct taste. Then serve with your favorite garnishes. Here I will serve mushrooms with slices of cucumber and celery.

First, I thinly sliced ​​the cucumber. Then there is the cucumber that I roll up, there is also the cucumber that I serve as a sheet.

The result is quite good in my opinion. I'm happy with the challenge for myself this time. A plate of art of mushrooms that made my mind think again about the next ideas for serving food art.

How about the taste? I like the combination of savory with a little sour from the tomato sauce that I use. I will definitely serve this menu for side dishes with warm rice.


So, how about the recipe that I present this time? I hope you enjoy the taste even though I only convey it through my writing and photos. Until next on my next recipes!

At least the chopper will help those women who want to also date after cooking. I'm serious about this though. Ehehe.

!LOL That's sound advice 😂.

This recipe looks doable, yet yummy. Unfortunately are mushrooms quite pricey here in Suriname, so we had to make do with dried and/or canned ones, but if I ever get the chance to buy fresher ones, I'll definitely try this recipe out.

That looks so yummy mbak. Your presentation is definitely better than the tuna dish in the restaurant on your last post. heheh
This mushroom is widely cultivated also here in my place mbak.

😊 thanks for your kind words :) 😄 maybe the chef on my previous post was really busy making the great one 🤣

I have not been prevalent to taste this mushroom which have been seen by various authors in the community and great chef, I hope to taste it one day actually

Sending you a hope, hope you can find similar mushrooms one day :)

Hello dear friend @anggreklestari good morning I love the purity of this mushroom, without a doubt it invites you to prepare an exquisite dish with it, I appreciate that you share the recipe and the way of preparation
enjoy it a lot

Hello, jlufer. Thanks for sending positive words always and enjoyed my food :)

This food looks so delicious.

Thank you :)

Those mushrooms look very fluffy! I wonder how they taste!

We mostly do Button Mushrooms here for most of our mushroom meals. More like a meat taste.

Agreed! Button mushrooms are more delicious and similar to chicken flavor. But unfortunately, I can't find button mushrooms these days. Maybe I need to travel to another city to buy them :)

I have fallen in love with the way you cut and roll the cucumber, because it looks spectacular.
Your dish looks delicious 😋

I love to learn new things, especially how to turn simple dish into a great one. BUT yeah I'm still not really great did it, always tried my best, and keep learning :)

That's a wonderful thought, definitely!
That's how it should be, love to learn. Life is daily learning... And boy, does your dish look excellent. It has details of shapes and colors that any tasteful diner would appreciate at first glance.🙂

The food looks really amazing and delicious 😋😋
Enjoy

So, what’s type of edible mushrooms you can eat in your country?

I don't know if it has type but in my country some consume the one that is white in Colour

So white mushrooms, here in Italy are expansive only some kind of mushrooms called porcini but I'm lucky because my mom it's able to find them in the forest and today give me that! I felt so luck! I will cook them soon but I'm sure mine will not look good as your plate, it's so artistic!❤️

Oooooh that's soooo beautiful! You are so lucky! Please send me here

That is so pretty in the dish.

With the bits of red and green, it looks a little like Christmas ribbon. :)

🌸🌸🌸 red and green are perfect pairing color 🙂

Truly an art of cooking.. And looks easy to cook...i can't find this kind of mushroom here... This type is what I like eating in our country. We usually buy king oyster mushroom and shiitake..

King oysters ooh that's sooo good. i’ve been dreaming about them long time :)

Wonderful dish!

Thank you so much! 🌸

I love mushrooms, but here we don't have many options for different varieties of them. That dish looks so tasty.

For now, especially in the local market, I just can found oyster mushrooms. In the international market, I can find shitake mushrooms but expensive 😄

If you can find edible mushrooms in your nearest area then it would be great
😊
