Mushrooms have an umami flavor palate, which is also known as meaty. This is why you often see mushroom burgers as a vegetarian option; you can enjoy the flavors without the guilt of breaking your lifestyle choice. Mushrooms are a flavorful, healthy choice as a side or appetizer such as sausage and spinach stuffed mushrooms. This recipe features a bold ginger, garlic and teriyaki based marinade. Salty marinades work best in that the flavor penetrates more deeply into the food. Ever wonder why most marinades include soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, added salt, or other salt-based ingredients? The light, porous structure of mushroom takes exceptionally well to marinades and soak up the flavor.

Easy way to use skewers for barbecuing

When grilling with skewers, use two skewers per kebab (as you can see in the pictures). This holds the food more firmly and makes it easier to rotate on the grill. With one skewer, food has a tendency to spin on the skewer. For more grilling with skewers tips you may check this meatball parm skewers recipe!

Food Photography Tips

I shot this in natural light at 1/125 sec, f/ 2.5, ISO 400.

I wanted to show each aspect of the recipe phase; from marinating, grilling and final presentation. I recommend showing the marinate in your photography if the ingredients are not as clear in the final cooked recipe. In my image you can clearly see the ginger, garlic and teriyaki sauce. These would otherwise be unrecognizable when cooked.

    1. Thanks Shashi. 2 skewers definitely makes grilling skewers more manageable. I like grilling all kinds of veggies. A grill basket also works great to keep them from falling through.
