Encountering Enoki Mushrooms
A recipe for "River Crab and Enoki Mushrooms" (with pictures and 3 steps). Clean the river crabs, coat them with cornstarch, and deep-fry. Mince the garlic, onion, scallions, ginger, and chili. Wash the enoki mushrooms and set aside. ☞ The river crabs I bought were "June Yellow" crabs, the precursor to the large hairy crab, so they were relatively small. ☞ Place the crabs in a bowl, add water to just cover them, and let them sit for half a day to purge any impurities. ☞ I like enoki mushrooms, so I added a lot; you can adjust the amount as needed when you make it.
