Tips for cooking

The degree of doneness depends on the type of the toaster you are using, so please adjust it while watching the condition. We baked it at 1000W 200°C (392°F) this time. Toaster is small inside, so the food and the heat source are close, and it has a risk of smoke or catching fire due to oil dropping/ splashing. Keep an eye on the toaster while it is heating. Please adjust the seasoning to your taste. If you are concerned about the excess oil of aburaage, pour hot water to remove the oil before using. You can substitute your favorite mushroom for enoki mushrooms.
