Stuffed Shiitake


I like to eat all kinds of mushroom ! Especially Shiitake. Is the wooden smell that makes me love it so much ! Some good quality of shiitake gives Al Dente texure. "To the tooth". Yes! I love mushroom where when u bite, it gives slight resistance in the centre.
Mushoom that give total-soft-texture just turn me off ! Sometimes I hate Enoki mushroom that 'packed in tin"! it's too slimy .I feel like bunch of enoki stucked in my throat and I have to swallow it with many efforts! I feel that I can choke by that bunch of enoki anytime if I eat it again.
