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.
GLAZED SHIITAKES WITH BOK CHOY
Gorgeous glazed shiitake mushrooms and tender green bok choy sparked with ginger, sesame and hot pepper work beautifully against more staid flavors, so consider serving them next to a traditional roast chicken or turkey. They also are delicious draped over a pile of rice.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Cut off and discard stem ends of bok choy. Separate leaves, rinse and drain.

Arrange leaves in one layer on an ovenproof earthenware platter, then set aside.
- Put a large wok or cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add oil and heat until nearly smoking, then add hot peppers and shiitake caps, stirring to coat. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Stir-fry for 2 minutes. Reduce heat slightly and add garlic, ginger, sugar, sesame oil and tamari. Stir-fry for 1 minute more.
- Spoon shiitake and pan juices over reserved cooked bok choy. Serve at room temperature, or if you prefer, reheat covered with foil for 10 to 15 minutes in a hot oven. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds, if using.

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.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
- Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Look for shiitake mushrooms that are plump and have a deep, earthy smell. Bok choy should be crisp and have a vibrant green color.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking the shiitake mushrooms, make sure you don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to steam rather than brown.
- Use a high-quality soy sauce: Soy sauce is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a soy sauce that is naturally brewed and has a deep, rich flavor.
- Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it's cooked. The shiitake mushrooms and bok choy will start to lose their texture if they sit for too long.
Conclusion:
Glazed shiitakes with bok choy is a delicious and healthy dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your food spicy, sweet, or savory, you're sure to find a version of this dish that you'll love.
