Brilio.net - Oyster mushrooms are one type of mushroom that is often processed because of its delicious taste and affordable price. This mushroom can be processed into various dishes, one of which is crispy oyster mushrooms which are popular as snacks, side dishes, or food complements.
To get a crispy texture, oyster mushrooms need to be coated with flour batter before frying. This batter not only adds crispiness, but also enhances the savory taste of the mushrooms. However, the flour batter must be mixed correctly. Otherwise, the crispy mushrooms can become soft after cooling.
Tricks to keep crispy oyster mushrooms crispy for several days can be found from a YouTube user named KELUARGA HAMZAH. By following this method, crispy mushrooms can stay crispy for up to three days.
As reported by BrilioFood from YouTube KELUARGA HAMZAH on Friday (1/11), prepare a large enough container first. Then add 250 grams of high protein flour, 4 tablespoons cornstarch, 1/2 tablespoon chicken stock powder, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper powder, and 1 teaspoon garlic powder.

Now, for the crispy crust, he uses 1/2 tsp of baking soda. The use of baking soda can make the dough texture crispier for a long time.
If baking soda has been added, stir the dry mixture until smooth. Then prepare another container. Put 6 tablespoons of dry flour mixture into the container. Then pour 200 ml of water to make a wet mixture.

"So the texture is not too thick and not too runny," explained YouTube KELUARGA HAMZAH.
Before using, transfer 5 tablespoons of dry flour to another container or bowl. This makes the dry flour easier to use and can coat the mushrooms well.

To use the dough, put the washed and dried oyster mushrooms into the wet dough. Then take one by one and put it into a container containing the dry dough. Arrange on top of the dry flour and give space between one mushroom and another.

If so, immediately cover it with the dry flour that has been transferred to another bowl. To perfect the flour coating, simply shake the container. No need to knead so that it does not stick to each other .
Now, these flour-coated mushrooms can be fried directly in hot oil. When frying, use medium heat so that the texture is crispy and evenly cooked. Stir until the mushroom texture begins to firm.

When it is firm, lower the heat. Then fry again until the color changes. When the mushrooms have changed color, lower the heat again to the lowest. Continue frying until there is no foam or oil explosion.
"This is a sign that the water content has decreased, it can be lifted and drained," he explained further.
These cooked mushrooms can be immediately lifted and drained. Wait for the temperature to drop to warm or tend to be cold. To make it taste even better, you can add balado powder. Then the crispy mushrooms are ready to be packaged.
"Once it's packaged, it can last up to three days. It's very suitable as a selling idea in stalls," said YouTube KELUARGA HAMZAH.
