Prepare the enoki mushrooms by cutting them into 2–3 cm lengths. This ensures they cook evenly and are easy to eat.

Add the cut enoki mushrooms to a pan. Then, add the soy sauce, sake (or mirin), and sugar to the pan. Do not add the vinegar yet.

Place the pan over medium heat and begin to cook the mixture. Stir occasionally to ensure the mushrooms are evenly coated and cooking.

Continue cooking until most of the liquid in the pan has evaporated. The mushrooms should look glazed and slightly reduced.

Once the liquid has mostly evaporated, turn off the heat.

Stir in the vinegar thoroughly. The vinegar adds a bright, tangy finish to the sweet and savory glaze.

Serve the Nametake warm, for example, as a delicious rice topper or as a side dish.
