Add a little oil, and a few minutes in a frying pan or microwave will do it. Maillard reaction (browning) starts at around 140°C and shiitake aren’t exactly thick, so they won’t take much longer than it takes to get some extra colour on them. Average frypan and oven temp is usually around 180°C, so it’s not something you really need to think or worry about.
They also think you need a certain hypersensitivity for this to happen. If this were a significant risk, there would be huge amounts of cases in East Asia. This case became a science tabloid spam piece because it’s so unusual.
It’s kind of crazy how much pressure you’d need to brown something in a wet environment. I’ve never thought about it that way, it puts it into perspective. Thanks Lemmy!
Easy. Just pressure cook it at 4.5 bar (65 Psi) in your industrial grade pressure cooker.
Being realistic, I guess someone accidentally swapped Celsius and Farenheit?
EDIT: Nope, seem to be wrong. They do mean 145 degC. On the other hand, I found a source reporting that 57 % of a total of 58 cases of shiitake dermatitis actually thoroughly cooked their mushrooms. Cooking won’t save you from this, as it seems.

How the fuck do I cook something at 145°C?

Thermite
Average stove gets to around 350°C. Electric can go to 900. Gas up to 2000, depending on the mixture used.
Wouldn’t gas just liquefy the pot in that case?
I think gas is less efficient in heat transfer, but electric does melt aluminium pots (if dry).
