2 c Vegetarian chicken-flavored
Broth
5 To 6 shitake mushrooms
1 tb (plus) freshly minced
Garlic
1 Inch square freshly minced

Baby bok choy

Taste

Pour one cup boiling water over shitake mushrooms and allow them to sit,
covered for 30 minutes.

When they are ready add the cornstarch to 1/4 cup of cool water and set
aside. Slice the mushrooms into bite sized pieces, removing the stems, and
pour the soaking liquid into a skillet. Add garlic and ginger. Sim- mer
for a few minutes and then add the mushrooms, the bamboo shoots, the broth
and the soy sauce. Simmer for at least 5 minutes.

Steam the boy choy separately (2-3 minutes, checking and tossing often).
whole baby bok choy may take a little longer.

Add the bok choy to the mixture. Stir in the cornstarch till it's as thick
as you like it. Serve over rice.
