- I've been working a lot with Lions Mane mushroom lately and I've been doing a lot of mushroom tests. I've been able to use everything that I've learned from testing on king oyster mushrooms for this lions mane steak recipe and WOW is it good. This is by far the best vegan steak I've had and I think I'm almost ready to reach out to Guga to have him try it.. Not yet though... almost.

The goal of SauceStache is to continue trying something new, something new to me and something different.
I find inspirations from you the SauceSquad and my constant hunt of social media to see what food is being made around the globe and how can I try to make it. Lets try to make some food and have fun!!
I love how u read out the meaning of "steak" 🤣
Was about to say the same thing 😂😂
whahah Thank you Emma!! I'm going to make it a new segment haha
@@SauceStache haha amazing 👏
Same, I felt it
Yess! Thank you for spelling it out! 💚
I have NEVER seen another channel that shows you how to make plant based meat with as much knowledge and precision as this one. When I see another recipe I always find things they leave out that you would have added that would have made it better. These always look amazing. And I love that you are not afraid of science.
Wow, thank you! Seriously thank you
Ikr? I’m always impressed in his channel 🥰
I commented that mushrooms do not have the same texture as steak, but in all honesty I have only taken lions mane in supplement form. Sounds great
Gaz Oakley, "The Avant Garde Vegan," also does amazing work. His chef high-stepping is inspiring, and intimidating. I have tried things from Sauce Stache, but not Gaz yet.
The science is what makes these recipes/videos AMAZING
the best part of this video is when you educate the haters on the meaning of steak and then tell them, "we're making steak". I love it.
You gotta get your wife/girlfriend/significant other to test more of your recipes... I trust her opinion..
Thank you! I trust her too haha I get her to test as many as she can!
She’s his wife. They just tied the golden cord
LOL! Imagine all those people saying, "You can't call it steak" but ignoring peanut butter or coconut milk or anything with the word "fingers" like "chicken fingers". **eye roll**
😂 exactly! Buffalo wings?
@@justcarineinparis I think buffalo wings is more in reference to the buffalo sauce on chicken wings.
I hope they weren't expecting dog in their hot dog.
@@DA-js7xz wait, theres no dog in hot dog ?
Or cat as in catfish
The steak definition is golden 🤣
If you were to sell a whole kit to make just this mushroom steak I would totally buy it! I think, if you could sell it on Amazon, you would make a fortune! Little sachets of the ingredients and a dried lions mane in one box? You'd make a killing!
Even better: Read up on cultivating mushrooms and give it a go. There is a 90% chance you'll get hooked and have a new hobby for years to come.
You can cultivate medicinal, active and gourmet mushrooms and it's quite a hassle to get it down but as soon as you get the hang of it, it becomes super easy to get decked out with more mushrooms than you'll ever know what to do with.
I don't get why people leave comments like "just eat a real steak", if they don't like the video, just go watch something else. Also, I'm interested in your videos even though I eat meat because you are showing good examples of how to use and control certain flavours. Not to mention, a lot of people can't eat meat even if they wanted to, so these videos are beneficial to them also. A couple of my friends are so allergic to land meats that if they eat it they're sick for days, and a number of my friends also are allergic to shelf fish and sea animals. Others live in areas where meat is way more expensive than non meat foods. Believe me, I love meat and I will continue to eat it for multiple reasons, but these videos are genuinely helpful to people who can't eat meat no matter how much they love it. They're helpful to me as a chef, cooking for people who can't eat meat even if they wish they could. Vegetarianism and veganism isn't a choice for everyone, unfortunately, and it's important not to discourage someone who is working hard to make life a little better for the people who wish they could have meat.
Thank you for your hard work, dedication, and enthusiasm Mark. I appreciate it.
Once a channel gets popular enough, randos will find it and leave shitty comments. It's a perversely a sign that the channel has a far reach when it acquires haters.
@@00muinamir hahahha yes very true.
made a steak with lions mane about a month ago, cooked it like a normal steak, by basting it in (vegan) butter with thyme, garlic and sage, and it was MIND BLOWING, have to say you definitely do not need the marinade you used, tastes like steak without it! so damn good! p.s, the English language changes constantly, dictionaries updated constantly, who cares
Thanks for the information. Sounds easier.
Mushrooms can be anything they want to be , with enough imagination
Yup!! pretty much!!
can they be astronaut ?
I bought the dried Lion's Mane through Amazon.. it was labeled under it's scientific name of Hericium Erinaceus.
I hope this helps. 😋 👩🏻🍳+🍄=(🥩 🚫).
I have been fretting, trying to figure out ways of using the dried Lion's Mane. ,..
And now I know. 🤭😋..
Yay!, Thanks Mark! 😁😋
Damn, this looks interesting! Will definitely try to get some Lionsmane mushrooms. Unfortunately not that easy, like 95% of the people that sell these seem to market them as magic vital healing mushrooms and want like 100€/kg which is a bit much 😅 Especially these big ones seem to be rare, all that I see online are like 1cm in diameter which is a bit pitiful for a steak :D
You can try to grow it yourself
@@kalinaszek That's going to be my way of solving this issue, I've decided. Even if I wasn't vegan, the idea of having all these mushrooms growing for myself, given how much I love them, would be worth it.
Seconding the grow-it-yourself thing. The mushroom kits they have these days make it super easy to grow your own fungi. I'm about to get my third flush of lion's mane off a Far West mini-farm. You can park them in the fridge for a few weeks in between fruitings until you need mushrooms again.
@@00muinamir I didn't know about the fridge trick, it sounds great!
Tell them! Steak doesn't have to be animal carcass!
That looked soooo delicious ! I hope I can find all these products here in Italy so I can try it toooo!!!! 🙏🙏
oh ps . Remember not to give any attention to the hate comments … they don’t really matter ! 🔝♥️💪🏼
I hope you can find everything too!!! And thank you!
Mark, you kill me! I get such a kick out of your passion and talent! That looked super good!! I think I can get Lion's Mane mushrooms here at Whole Foods. Thank you for your awesome experiments that always seem to turn out so good! Brilliant!! 😉👍
I really appreciate that you found the “irony taste.” I’ve been looking for the taste if irony for years.
I thought meat made out of vegetables was already irony.
This is the most ironic age, lol.
I see you also enjoy Adam Ragusea hahaha. Season your __ not your ____
This is a very cool way to prepare dried mushrooms. I bet this would work sooo well for shiitake tips too!
I do!! Adam is great! and thank you!!!
Thanks for mentioning Guga, Mark.
In a couple years you'll be so good at this you'll create something that's even meatier than meat, if that's even possible!
Look at you Mark with the Joshua Weissman camera moves!!! Amazing video as always!!!
Imagine Guga foods seeing this would love a colab
I just need you for my personal chef.. Mission Accomplished 🤣
hahahaha that would be fun hah
the lions mane has a fuzzy outer texture, could you fill the space between the "hairs" with gluten powder, and let it autolyze into a more meaty outer skin?
The end result on these - amazing! I think that visually the "pork belly" was more effective because of the color BUT texture-wise and considering the flavours you added here I would probably love it much more :D A perfect centerpiece to a classic steak dinner!
.
Keep the experiments coming Mark - we all love them as much as you do :D
Have a wonderful end of the week!
9:43 i would like to see some airfryer recipies. 🙂
Boom sounds good!!!
I love that you're friends with and borrow ideas from non vegans. Breaking down that wall of tribalism is more important to plant-based eating than I think most people realize. Great channel, man.
The people gettin’ up in arms about steak what is what isn’t is just silly to me. It’s supposed to replicate steak with those beefy flavors the way it’s cooked and prepared etc! Just silly semantics! IMO I’m a meat eater and I mean what else are you supposed to be calling it? Lmao!
EXACTLY hahah thank you!!!
I think making plants taste like steak is more interesting than making steak taste like steak. I mean if it's a steak it tastes like steak then no big deal but if a mushroom tastes like a steak then well that's something!
I’m not vegan, yet I keep coming back
Amazing!!! drooling over here! :)
I have no idea why people get so triggered over labels like "steak" "milk" "eggs". These are just words....btw You´re eating SOMEONE else and every part of them - the labels here are "blood cells", "bacteria", "organs", "skin",.....so shuut up and check your cholesterol! :D
I don´t mean to be rude, but come on people, you can have plant-based meals, not hurt anyone and still enjoy your food, it´s a win-win. :)
Mushrooms for the win and Webster to the rescue… neat 😂
Right ?!! hahah
I love the Good Eats style fridge shot!!
It would be great to see a video on the food science of a mushroom, and why they are so 'meaty'.
Now i have ti look in Italy this mushroom! 🤯
lmaoo once he started seasoning with the usual stuff.. I immediately thought of Guga Foods too 😂
The most impressive thing about this video is that FORK you are using. I'm looking for that same style of fork which I find is the most perfect design for cutlery. which is its long straight thick handles and curved fork end.
Crate and Barrel. It took a LONG time to decided on these haha
Adding a camera inside the fridge is a nice aesthetic touch. Sometimes it feels like I'm watching Alton Brown's son who turned vegan!
I'm not even vegan I just really like mushrooms and will gladly find more ways to incorporate them into my diet. But honestly the people saying "just eat meat" are probably the same people that complain about vegans.
These looks delicious Mark! I have several lion's mane blocks about to go into fruiting so I'll be havin lots of dried lion"s mane to play around with soon. I'm excited to give this method a try! Thank you very mush! I love these mushroom vids you do 😀✌
Mines just ready to harvest now. Does this only work if they're dried?
Lovely 👌🏻 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a wonderful day everyone 🌻
Thank you! Cheers!
Great explanation why this really is a steak. In Germany it is forbitten to call this a steak, same with almond milk, vegan cheese and so on. People could mix it up and eat the wrong one and propably die from it. I will try this soon!
I think part of the texture might coem from the fact its has been dried. Maybe you could chop up and mince more common mushrooms, dry them and then bind them into a steak shape... guess the problem is you may end up with something a bit "burgery"
I'm new to your vids so maybe this is something you've already explored, but with your expertise I'd love to see recipes for flavours that meat couldn't do.
I like that we can mimic meat but I haven't seen much of ppl explore where flavour can go leaving meat behind.
There's a food revolution on the horizon and I'm always interested when I see ppl with your talent share your knowledge.
Hi, I really enjoy your videos! Could you make a video on how to make tvp at home, if that is possible! I'll be looking forward to it! Keep on making those amazing videos!
Weird request but an idea I had and so far have been too afraid to test on my own is trying to curdle a mushroom milk into a tofu/paneer-like curd.
I've done it with alt milks other than soy, and found it depends on how much protein is in the raw ingredient itself eg. pea milk curdles better than almond milk. Mushrooms have some protein so they should curdle in theory but I'd love to see someone else try first so I don't waste a bunch of mushroom 😅
Huh, that is pretty weird and now I am curious. Is this possible?
@@RP-uu7oq maybe mung beans or some other bean would work too? since they are closer related to soy and have more protein
Mushrooms have a lower percentage of protein than nuts or legumes, and the insoluble fiber in mushrooms is chitin instead of cellulose. I think you're probably not going to be able to make a curd from *just* mushrooms. You'll need to add some fats and proteins, possibly even some carbs, from other sources to more closely mimic the ratios found in plant milks.
Holy moly!! This was such a fun recipe. It was like science class in the kitchen! This steak, with the appearance, taste and mouth feel mimicked sirloin almost too much for my plant based palate. Love the channel and can’t wait to see what you come up with next!
I want to grow some lions main and other mushrooms so badly
You should! its fun! I've done it a few times
Get a growkit first.
Several companies make grow kits that just require a little water and a plastic tent. If you can get those where you live, start there, it's easy!
@@00muinamir yes! I have seen some that are in my region I want to get some, but idk why I never go for it, Is not cheat so I need a push haha.
Don't worry about the haters! I love your videos! I think it's so cool to see your inventiveness and the whole process of experimentation you do.
On behalf of 🐖 🐄 🦆 🐇 🐓 THANKYOU for being Vegan and for using your channel to show how fun, easy and tasty it can be 🙏
Really nice Video! Id love to try all your recipes but most of the ingredients are not available in my town :(. Greetings from Germany :D
Natürlich sind sie das! Kriegst mindestens alle online :D !
Greetings!!! Take a look online, most of the stuff I get is not local to me.
Oh dang, this looks good! (and super easy) -- also you reading out the definition of steak was cracking me up. If I can ever find a good source on these I might have to make them up. Any idea if the bacon recipe from last week can be adapted to dried and yield a similar texture? I have a feeling that dried might be easier to source (for those of us a little too afraid to grow them ourselves).
Definitely making this. Just have to get all of the ingredients. Thanks for sharing!!!!
I would love to cook with lion’s mane mushrooms, whether as a meat substitute or just as a dish in its own right (mushrooms are so tasty!) but I can’t find them just as mushrooms for culinary use. I can only find them as health supplements - capsules and so on.
I love how you address the comments up front. To me its not steak. Neither is a lot of cuts of meat haha. I go by the pure definition which is a meat but one that is cut across the grain. but who cares. mushroom "steaks" im in!
They look so good... Plus, I loved the way you described them. 👍
I just ordered some Lions Mane. I'm all in.
Since Lion has similar fibers to muscle meats, have you tried cutting a large lion ‘on the bias’??
I have and it really is nuts how good it comes out! I'm going to be working with these a lot more!
Methylcellulose is really hard to find. What's a good replacement?
nice explanation about meat and mushroom
great stuff Mark, extra kudos for the Josh Weissman moment at 05:15!
Please make a vegan doner kebab
I'm REALLY interested in doing this!
Avant grade vegan did a really good kebab video.
I could eat mushrooms at every meal I love them
You started filming Ethan Chlebowski style, I see you. Love the butter shot :)
Not even a vegan here but damn the food you made on this channel is appetizing
Im not sure this screams steak to me. I'd probably use them as burger preplacements.
Either way, very cool video! Super informative😊
Thank you!! Definitely not a burger replacement, way different texture. You would be very surprised about how steak like this actually is.
I love the fridge scene so much :D
Amazing, thanks for all the experiments and videos.
Man you channel is underrated! I swear i thought this video has milion of views
Sauce Stache, would you consider dehydrating them before soaking them? Adam Ragusea made a video about how dehydrating the mushroom increases the flavour. If so, then please make a comparison batch without dehydrating them.
I think the were already dried out.. these were not fresh mushrooms
@@talibahdivine thanks for sharing that info.
These were dehydrated.
As a former linguistics major, the "Words in English have more than one meaning" comment had me ROTFLMAO.
The camera angles remind me of Raw Vegan Not Gross. Especially the leaning on the counter hahaha. Love it
I’m so glad I found you forget when lol. Your vdo’s impress me ALL OF THEM! I save all your vdo’s and share with others.
Love how beautiful it looks! Too bad I can't find this shroom here!
Honestly want to see guga join in and him trying out some of these dishes.
They also call the inside of a coconut meat
Hi @Sauce Stache! Where can we get the tofu press you used in this video? It's not on your Amazon store. Anybody knows?
Glad I found your channel. I need to get my hands on some lion mane mushrooms.
I’m over here drooling 🤤 looks amazing I’m hoping to find that mushroom.
Caught that nod to Alton Brown with the fridge camera POV 😊
I found an online retailer for mushrooms. I was surprised by the price, but then I remembered that dried mushrooms are very light weight, so 16 ounces is probably a lot of mushrooms. How many servings do you think is in 16 ounces of dried mushrooms?
I really really love your attitude towards vegetarian food that it must taste way better than animal based food recipes, because a lot vegan recipes out there are so bland with no wow! factor in it, we need to let meat eaters know that our food tastes better than theirs, and you don't have to worry about health issues when you're eating it 😆 I recently got some vegan strawberry yoghurt and it tasted bland because they'd minimized the sugar content, so I added more sugar to it and it tasted glorious!!! I also wanted to thicken it up like Greek yoghurt, but I'm not sure about which vegan thickening agent to use, it was made from cashew and coconut creams. I know diabetes or high blood sugar levels occurs only when people eat meat and sugar, being vegetarian myself I never get high blood sugar levels at my monthly health tests even though I eat a considerable amount sugar, but that's only because I don't eat meat. Consuming sugar and meat is a bad brew, I know I used to do it and my health test results were not good. But thanks for the video and information, happy eating 😄
**JuSt EaT a ReAl StEaK**
Sorry bro, not everyone wants to eat a chunk of cow ass. Gotta love those euphemisms. Bacon=pig flesh shavings. disgusting. I'd rather have a mushroom. I'd rather eat sh*t!
Gotta find me some of these shrooms! They're hard to find where I live and they're really expensive!
Keep it up!!
I really Love your work!
I ended up growing lion's mane myself, as the price in Norway is high... (22.68 usd for pound. Or 500 NOK for a kilogram for those who understand more sensible systems than what you have in the US ;) )
And I am shocked. Not only does it work as a steak. But compared to animal flesh, it has some advantages. It seems like it takes up marinade better?
I would love a video where you cook an actual steak. How often would you say you have to eat steak to keep "up to date"?
Have you concidered staining the marinade with beetroot powder to dye the mushrooms a bit?
Please ignore if you're not looking for feedback.
I really like watching your videos, but I never tried one of your recipe because I don't have the uncommon ingredients and/or machines and utensils you are always using. I wish your recipes were a bit more user friendly or at least if you would say what else we can use as an alternative. I'll keep watching, just my thoughts :)
He uses most of the same ingredients in every video. Cappa carageenan, methyl cellulose, black strap molasses, etc. If you buy tsome of those things you'll be able to use them in other recipes.
With the gadgets you can usually find a workaround. For instance his perforator in this video could just be done with a toothpick
@@RogueAstro85 yeah I guess you are right. Maybe I'm just a bit intimated
Where did you purchase the whole lion's mane?
That POV fridge shot reminded me of the show Good Eats 😂 This looks so good def would make this!! 🖤
Thank you for providing such recipes.
Wish I was your neighbor, I’d offer to work for food
That would be awesome! A lot of my neighbors have no idea what I do haha
Right? Same here I’d be mowin’ the lawn for some of these awesome dishes haha!! Btw love your username 😆😆
Mushroom steak is way healthier than real steak. I stopped eating red meat for that reason. I never really enjoyed steak as a red meat eater. But this is tempting to try.
Guga and Adam Ragusea reference in one vid? Cheftube really is a small world.
You are doing god's work mr stache. Haters gonna hate.
I think if you were to look into and reach out to Perfect Day they might be willing to send you some of their raw product for you to experiment and develop recipes with and bring more attention to them, I would be over the moon if something like that could happen. It's that mix of science and veganism that makes me think of you and gets me so excited for their progress.
Hee hee Guga works magic. I watch his sous vide everything. I love your videos my favorite for all things vegan. My son is vegan serving in the Air Force I want to be able to fix stuff for him.
You should raffle off visits with taste testing of your cooking :-)
You know, until your small restaurant, that becomes a chain of restaurants, where you have periodic web training and conferences to teach the chefs the meals :-)
And don't forget to put one in Wyoming! (Casper)
I'm not personally vegan, but I'll have to give this one a try to have something other than seitan for vegan company.
Have you tried using Shiitake Mushroom's stems? In my country, shiitake's stems often used as the main ingredient for meat substitutes as their texture is very similiar to meat fiber (if you shred it)
use dried shiitake mushroom, soak until soft & separate from the stems. Or it would be better if theres store that selling dried shiitake's stems
Hey, SauceBro. I love your videos and watch them regularly. I’m beginning to skip your videos when they say “best **** ever”. Because it seems anything you make is the best one ever. I would prefer if you were just honest.
