Beech mushrooms are also called "million mushrooms." Their umami runs fairly deep, so they bring out a broth-like richness in soups or stir-fries. Today, instead of a soup, I stir-fried them with chewy king oyster mushrooms instead - the flavor, aroma, and texture all came out wonderfully varied.

Steps
- 01
Poach the chicken breast: bring water to a boil in a pot, turn off the heat, add the chicken breast with salt and pepper, and let it sit for 20 minutes. A few bay leaves if you have them - it really cuts the gamey smell.
- 02
Julienne the carrot with a mandoline.
- 03
Tear the mushrooms into bite-sized pieces by hand.
- 04
Heat olive oil in a pan and grill the mushrooms from step 3 until well browned.
- 05
In a mixing bowl, combine the carrot from step 2, the mushrooms from step 3, and the shredded chicken breast, pour in the dressing, and mix well.
- 06
Plate and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
