Vegan Portobello Jerky

01Method

1. 1

   Place the mushroom slices into a resealable bag. In a separate bowl, combine soy sauce, chile paste, rice vinegar, and sesame oil, whisking until uniform. Pour the marinade over the mushrooms, seal the bag, and let sit in the refrigerator for 8 hours.

2. 2

   Heat the oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

3. 3

   Lay the marinated mushroom slices on the prepared sheet, ensuring none of the pieces overlap or touch.

4. 4

   Bake for 1 hour, then turn each slice over with tongs and continue baking for another hour.

5. 5

   Take the pan out of the oven and allow the jerky to cool fully before storing. If any thicker pieces remain moist after the 2 hours, prop the oven door slightly open and give them an extra 5 minutes, or until completely dry.
