Hericium erinaceus
Hericium erinaceus is known as the "meat in vegetables" and the "king of mushrooms". It is a very nutritious thing. The dried Hericium erinaceus has a taste of dried fish and smells particularly delicious. The toothpick meat seems to me to be a reduced version of mutton kebabs. Winter is a good time to eat mutton, but I don't want to eat too much meat, so I want to use this meat-flavored fungus instead. I just happened to see a video on the Internet about how to taste the meat with monkey mushroom. I improved it and it turned into toothpick meat. (In fact, there is no bamboo stick at home and only toothpicks can be used... -_-...)

Steps for Hericium erinaceus
1
Soak Hericium erinaceus at 40° water temperature until there is no hard core. Then steam it in chicken soup for half an hour, which is more nutritious and ensures no hard core.2
Slice the soaked Hericium erinaceus, squeeze out the water, and wear it with a toothpick. Note: Use a towel to dry dry the Hericium erinaceus.3
Add the marinade and stir well with your hands. Marinate for at least half an hour.4
Add water to the flour to make a batter. Add a little corn flour and a few drops of cooking oil.5
Cover the monkey head mushroom skewers with batter, not too thick, roll in sesame seeds.6
Put into the pan at 50% oil temperature and fry over low heat until the sesame seeds change color. (Because it has been steamed with chicken soup, the monkey mushroom itself is cooked, so the frying time is shorter.)7
Put it on paper to absorb oil. (Kitchen paper is the best, I used paper towels instead)Hericium erinaceus Make Tips
1 Fresh lion's mane mushrooms are naturally slightly bitter, and this bitterness becomes stronger after drying, so you must soak them until there are no hard parts left. 2 Neither cold water nor boiling water can be used to soak lion's mane mushrooms; only warm water can properly rehydrate them.
