Best 3 Glazed Shitake Mushrooms With Bok Choy Recipes

GLAZED SHITAKE MUSHROOM WITH BOK CHOY

Steps:

• In a 4 quart pan bring water to boil. Add 2 tsp. of salt.
• Wash bok choy and cut off the stems. I left about 1-2″ of the stem towards the leaves but next time I will discard that too.
• Once the water comes to a boil, drop the leaves in the water and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the leaves are barely cooked. I cooked for 2 minutes but if using baby bok choy, I would recommend less than 2 minutes.
• Remove from water or drain in a colander and run under cold water. Pat dry the leaves and arrange in a platter or an oven safe dish. I let the leaves dry on paper towels until my mushrooms were ready.
• Remove the caps of the mushrooms, wash and keep aside. If the mushrooms caps are big, cut them into two. Discard the stems.
• Heat a wok or cast iron pan on high heat, add oil and heat until smoking hot. Add peppers, mushrooms and stir.
• Season with salt & black pepper, and stir fry for 2 minutes until mushrooms shrink in size.
• Reduce the heat; add garlic, ginger, sesame oil, soya/tamari sauce and sugar if using. Stir fry for 1 - 2 minutes.
• Place bok choy on a platter or an oven safe dish in a single layer or in two layers as I did. Spoon mushrooms on to arranged bok choy.
• Sprinkle scallions and sesame seeds on mushrooms to garnish.
• I served it at room temperature but if one wishes, cover it with foil and reheat in a hot oven for 10 - 15 minutes. If reheating, garnish the mushrooms after reheating.

STIR-FRIED BABY BOK CHOY WITH SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Soak shiitakes in 1 cup very hot water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, reserving liquid. Trim mushrooms and chop. Separate leaves and stems of bok choy; cut stems into 2-inch lengths and slice leaves into ribbons.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. When oil is hot, add bok choy stems, garlic, if using, reconstituted mushrooms, and about 1/4 cup reserved mushroom water.
• Cook, stirring frequently, until stems are crisp-tender, about 4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small skillet heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil; saute fresh shiitake mushrooms over medium-high heat. Continue cooking until they begin to brown and crisp on edges.
• Into the large skillet or wok, add bok choy leaves and oyster sauce and toss vegetables gently to combine; continue cooking until greens wilt, about 2 more minutes. Serve immediately, topped with crisp mushrooms.

BOK CHOY WITH SHIITAKES

Steps:

• Put wok or large skillet over maximum heat, and add oil. When oil smokes, add garlic. Stir once, and add the bok choy. Cook for a minute or two until it just begins to brown. Then stir, and add shiitakes and sugar.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, a minute or two, and add the chicken stock and fish sauce. Cook, stirring, until the bok choy is tender. Add a bit more stock or water if necessary -- the mixture should not dry out entirely. Serve immediately.
