This mushroom is often used as food in Japanese and Chinese recipe and is frequently served on its own, sometimes stuffed, or in stir-fry recipes with soy sauce. They have a soft, chewy texture and it taste a little like seafood. You can just add seasonings suitable for seafood for a mock seafood effect.
