Preparation

  1. Wash all mushrooms and pat dry. Remove stems, and cut all mushrooms (except enoki garnish) into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Melt butter in a large skillet. When butter is hot, add the mushrooms, except the enoki, and saute over medium-high heat for a few minutes. Add soy sauce, sake and dashi. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook 15 minutes. Add more dashi if necessary.
  3. Bring an ample amount of water to a boil. Add the soba, stir well and cook until al dente. Drain in a colander, and transfer to serving bowl.
  4. Pour mushroom sauce over the soba and toss well. Garnish with enoki tops and chopped parsley.
