  • 4

Ingredients

  • oz. maitake mushrooms
  • oz. shiitake mushrooms
  • oz. small carrots (about 6), scrubbed, halved lengthwise
  • vegetable oil, divided
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • unseasoned rice vinegar
  • toasted sesame oil
  • finely grated peeled ginger
  • scallions, thinly sliced on a diagonal
  • toasted sesame seeds

Preparation

Step 1

Prepare grill for medium-high heat. Toss mushrooms and carrots with 3 Tbsp. vegetable oil in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning mushrooms often and carrots occasionally, until tender and lightly charred in spots, about 4 minutes for mushrooms and 5–8 minutes for carrots. Let cool slightly on a cutting board.

Meanwhile, whisk soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, and remaining 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil in a large bowl.

Cut carrots into 2”-long pieces, tear mushrooms into bite-size pieces. Add to bowl with vinaigrette along with scallions and sesame seeds and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper.
