Ingredient Notes
Oyster Mushrooms: These mushrooms are beloved the world over for their delicate texture and mild, savoury flavour. Cooking brings out this delicate flavour, turning them from spongy to a velvety texture. Buttermilk: Like you would see in a fried chicken recipe, using buttermilk tenderizes the oyster mushrooms for frying. Coating the oyster mushrooms in buttermilk will also help them get nice and flaky when you dip them in the dry mix.
How To Make These Fried Oyster Mushrooms
What is the best way to eat oyster mushrooms? Fried. While you can cook oyster mushrooms in many different ways, this fried oyster mushroom is my favourite way to eat them. Do you need to soak oyster mushrooms before cooking? Oyster mushrooms (like all mushrooms) are like sponges and will soak up any water they come into contact with. Most oyster mushrooms usually don’t need too much cleaning—simply wipe them with a damp paper towel. These mushrooms are best eaten as soon as they’re ready.
