Mushroom Soy Sauce

Mushroom Soy Sauce

Ingredients:
soy sauce made from soy (tamari)
mushrooms, shiitake, raw

Directions:
In a large pot bring the soy sauce just to the boiling point.
Do not boil or reduce.
Add the pound of dehydrated shiitakes and let sit until the soy sauce has come down to room temperature.
Strain the soy sauce through folded cheese cloth.
Squeeze out as much soy sauce from the mushrooms as possible; using the cheese cloth makes this much easier.
