Steps:
- Remove the stems from the mushrooms and discard. Slice the caps into 1/8 inch slices. Shiitakes are generally very clean and may need only a slight brushing off.
- Heat a heavy pan till very hot, cast iron if possible and add 1/4 inch of the olive oil. Add the mushrooms and cook for 15 seconds. Salt and pepper to taste while they are cooking. Add the garlic and shallots but keep stirring the mushroom so that the garlic and shallots do not color or burn.
- After 1 minute add the stock and then the cold butter. Swirl the pan to allow the liquid to absorb the butter. This will thicken the sauce.
- Pour vinegar in a mixing bowl, add salt and pepper. Whisk in olive oil and adjust to taste. Toss babymixedlettuces in vinaigrette, arrange on plate. Place on top of mixed lettuces a portion of shiitakes. Arrange the diced tomatoes around the shiitake mushrooms.

SAUTEED SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS
I know portobello mushrooms are all the rage, but shiitakes are the closest thing you can find to wild mushrooms without going to a specialist. To me, they are invaluable, and prepared this simple, traditional way, they are spectacular. If you do happen to have some chanterelle, morel, or other wild mushrooms on hand, this is an excellent way to cook them.

Tips:
- To clean shiitake mushrooms, use a damp paper towel to wipe away any dirt or debris. Do not wash them under running water, as this can make them soggy.
- If you don't have shallots, you can use a small onion instead.
- If you don't have white wine, you can use chicken broth or vegetable broth instead.
- To make the sauce thicker, simmer it for a few minutes longer, or add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water).
- Serve the mushrooms with a side of rice, noodles, or roasted vegetables.
