Enoki mushrooms are a type of edible mushroom that are commonly used in Asian cuisine, particularly in Japanese, Korean, and Chinese dishes. They are characterized by their long, thin, and delicate stems and small caps, and have a mild, slightly sweet taste.
Enoki mushrooms are often used in soups, stews, stir-fries, and salads. They are also used in sushi and as a garnish for other dishes. Enoki mushrooms are a good source of fiber, potassium, and vitamins B and D.
It's important to note that while enoki mushrooms are generally safe to eat, there have been instances of contamination with harmful bacteria such as listeria. In 2020, a multistate outbreak of listeria infections was linked to enoki mushrooms from Korea. To reduce the risk of illness, it's recommended to cook enoki mushrooms thoroughly before eating them, and to make sure to properly clean and store them.
