Golden Enoki mushrooms are well suited for both raw and cooking methods such as simmering, blanching, and boiling. Before consuming, the ends should be trimmed, the mushrooms should be washed, and any slimy stems should be discarded. The delicate, crunchy texture of Golden Enoki mushrooms can be served fresh in salads with other raw vegetables, lightly sautéed and added into stir-fries and noodle dishes, blended into beef rolls, vegetable pancakes, mixed into omelets, risottos, curries, sushi, or even in spring rolls. They are most commonly used in hot pot soups, added in for texture, but they can also be blanched in a soy sauce-based mixture and served as a main dish. Golden Enoki mushrooms pair well with Thai basil, garlic, onions, green onions, ginger, bok choy, broccoli, green beans, cucumber, carrot, tomato, papaya, coconut, bamboo shoots, miso, sesame oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, meats such as chicken, tofu, beef, and pork, eggs, seafood, somen or soba noodles, rice, and cheddar cheese.
They will keep up to one week when stored in a paper bag in the refrigerator.
