In this recipe, Sara Buttanshaw, an acupuncture student and holistic facialsit, talks about how mushrooms are amazing! Each different type of mushroom its own set of different healing properties! You can use any mushroom in this. She uses dark chestnut mushrooms as that grow local to her.
Why not try a few types of mushroom all together? Fresh or dried. Shiitake for brain function, Reishi to lower blood pressure, or Lion’s Mane for focus and anxiety!
Optional: The soy and vinegar can be quite sharp, if not to taste, you can add 1tsp brown sugar.
This is a snack sized portion, kind of like an alternative to having a hot drink.
To make this a more substantial (but equally quick) meal I often add a tin of chickpeas, thick udon noodles, and 1/2 a bag of kale. Do this as the last step and let it all simmer for 5 mins. You can add tofu, fish or meat too.
Directions
Add the garlic, oil and mushrooms to a pot and fry on medium heat until the mushrooms are soft and starting to stick a bit.
Add everything else except the water, mix together until incorporated. Then add the hot water and let it all simmer for 3-5 mins.
