Mushroom Consommé with Sake

Ingredients

  • 2 tsp canola oil

  • 1 cup diced yellow onion

  • 10 oz white mushrooms, with stems, thinly sliced

  • 3 medium dried shiitake mushrooms

  • 1/3 cup dried porcini mushrooms (1/4 ounce)

  • 2 ribs celery, chopped

  • 3 sprigs parsley

  • 1/4 tsp rubbed sage

  • 1/2 tsp whole black peppercorns

  • 1 cup diced soft regular tofu (4 ounces)

  • 1/4 cup fresh spinach, cut in 1/4" ribbons

  • 1/4 cup sake

  • 2 tsp tamari

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1/4 cup enoki mushrooms, for garnish

  • 4 paper-thin slices daikon radish, for garnish

A fusion of East and West techniques and flavors, it makes a refined first course. It is also comforting sipped from a mug if you omit the garnish.

Directions

  • Heat the oil in a deep saucepan over medium-high heat. Sauté the onion until it is well-browned, 10 minutes. Pour in 10 cups cold water. Add the mushrooms, celery, parsley, sage, and peppercorns. When the liquid boils, reduce the heat and simmer uncovered for 40 minutes.
  • Set the broth aside to steep for 30 minutes. Strain it into a large bowl. Press lightly on the solids before discarding them. There will be about 8 cups mushroom broth.
  • To serve, set out 4 small, deep bowls. Place one-quarter of the tofu and spinach in each bowl. Heat 4 cups of the broth in a saucepan over medium-high heat. When the soup starts bubbling around the edges, add the sake, tamari, and salt. Divide among the 4 bowls. Add in the enoki and daikon slices, and serve.
