Directions
Pour one cup boiling water over shiitake mushrooms and allow them to sit, covered for 30 minutes.
When they are ready add the cornstarch to ¼ 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 until it's as thick as you like it.
Serve over rice.
