2 T Balsamic Vinegar
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
-
1 tsp Dulse with Garlic
¾ tsp Paprika
2 tsp Tamari
1 T Mirin Cooking Wine
5 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil, divided
1 Shallot, minced
4 Cloves of Garlic, minced
-
1 T Sugar Kelp Flakes
¼ Cup Raw Cashews (soaked in water for 15 minutes)
1 T Arrowroot
1-1 ½ Cups Water
1 T Lemon Juice
1 T Nutritional Yeast
1 T Mirin
-
½ tsp Sea Salt with Sea Veg
1 tsp Tarragon
Fresh Ground Black Pepper, to taste
Splash Tamari, to taste
Marinade
Garlic Sauce
Directions
Marinate the Mushrooms
In a shallow dish or a ziploc bag, combine the marinade ingredients
Place the Portobello caps in the marinade and make sure they are well-coated
Set aside and allow to marinade for at least 15 minutes or up to one hour
Prepare the Garlic Sauce
Heat 1-2 tsp of Oil in a skillet at medium heat
Cook the Shallot and Garlic with a pinch of Sea Salt with Sea Veg until translucent
Add the Kelp Flakes and stir until they are hydrated
Remove from the heat
Place all the reaming ingredients in a blender, leaving out ½ Cup of the water
Add half of the Shallot, Garlic, Kelp Flakes mixture and blend until smooth
Make sure all the cashews blend in by pulsing, alternated with letting it blend for a minute a few times
Return the blended mixture to the pan with the sautéed mixture and heat until thickened
Adjust the seasonings to taste and set aside
Grill the Mushrooms
Heat a grill to medium heat and spray or brush with oil
Place the Mushrooms on the grill and allow to cook for 2 minutes per side, basting frequently
Baste the Mushroom and continue flipping until desired texture is achieved, probably another 2-3 minutes per side, depending on the grill and the size of the Mushrooms
When the Mushrooms are finished, place them on a platter and reheat the sauce
Serve immediately with a generous drizzle of the sauce
Recipe Note
This dish pairs nicely with a cool green salad and some fresh melon. Try it along side a glass of chilled glass of rosé or fruit juice spritzer.
