Noodles with oyster mushrooms, green asparagus, scallions and sesame seeds – gluten and soy free
A quick and easy Japanese inspired stirfry with oyster mushrooms, green asparagus and some scallions in coconut aminos and sesame oil (the oil.is optional). Topped with black sesame seeds, regular seeds work just as well. Combined with noodles of your choice. I used brown rice spaghetti.
Noodles
I have tried all kinds of glutenfree noodles. White rice noodles are the most common but don’t contain much nutrients. Soba noodles are a bit sticky, so are some brown rice noodles. I have found great brown rice spaghetti from a biological farm in Italy. And I started to use those fro noodles as well. But if you have regular rice noodles that’s fine as well.
Coconut aminos
Instead of soy sauce I use coconut aminos. That is fermented sap from flowers of the coconut tree. It does not contain soy or gluten. It taste a bit less salty, it is sweeter but still has some umami.
Medical Medium
Coconut aminos can be eaten on Medical Medium. But if you leave out all fermented foods you shouldn’t.
Sesame is a seed oil. But it’s not the same thing as the GMO seed oils that are used for cooking. Just be sure it’s bio and that it contains only sesame. You just need a teaspoon per portion.
