These Ooomami Pickled Shiitake Mushrooms should start taking up regular residency in your fridge.
Inspired by Momofuku‘s recipe, Chef Ryan Wiebe puts his spin on these flavor-packed fungi using our Ooomami blend.
Ooomami has an addictive and complex flavor profile with shiitake and porcini mushroom powder, brownulated sugar, dehydrated butter, garlic, onion, Worcestershire sauce powder, chipotle, and more.
Pro tip: after you make these mushrooms – try this blend in your burger patties.
