Grilled bay boletus with miso
- 150 g bay boletus
- ½ teaspoon fine salt
- 1 tablespoon apple schnapps – alternatively use calvados
- 2 tablespoons barley miso – available in most supermarkets
- Sea salt
- Black pepper
- Grill
- Add mushrooms and salt to a bowl. Stir well, so all the mushrooms are lightly covered with salt. Put the bowl in the fridge for two hours.
- After cooling, rinse the mushrooms in water and put them on a plate.
- Mix apple schnapps and miso and glaze the mushrooms with this marinade.
- Put the mushrooms back in the fridge for at least an hour.
- Light the grill and fry the mushrooms over high heat, until the marinade has caramelized on the surface of the mushrooms.
- Sprinkle a bit of sea salt and pepper on the mushrooms and serve immediately.
Tips
Eat the mushrooms as a snack or put them in a salad. Alternatively, you can serve them with some grated hard cheese and a bit of lemon zest.
