Toasted Shiitake and Shoyu Compound Butter

by chriscooksit 8 ingredients 5 steps

This Toasted Shiitake and Shoyu Compound Butter is a pure umami bomb, engineered to add incredible savory depth to any dish. By pulverizing rock-hard dried mushrooms and toasting the dust in a dry pan, you unlock an intense, earthy aroma and a roasted flavor profile that fresh mushrooms simply can't provide. Spiked with light soy sauce and a touch of MSG to amplify the natural glutamates, this deeply speckled, rich butter is the ultimate flavor multiplier. Melt a slice over a hot ribeye, fold it into fresh pasta, or use it to baste poultry for an unforgettable, restaurant-quality finish.
