You can find a lot of different types of mushrooms in Japan.
This time, I used these mushrooms.
Shimeji, Shiitake, Eringi, Maitake.
When you use mushrooms in Takikomi gohan, the scent would be so good.

Please use this purple sweet potato (Satsumaimo さつまいも) .
Orange colored sweet potato has too much moisture and is not perfect for Takikomi gohan.
