Stir - Fried Snow Peas With Chinese Mushrooms And Bamboo Shoots
(Chao - Hsueh - Tou)
What You Need:
  • 6 dried Chinese mushrooms, 1 to 1˝ inches in diameter
  • 1 pound fresh snow peas (thoroughly defrosted frozen snow peas will do, but they will not have the crispness of the fresh ones)
  • ˝ cup canned bamboo shoots, sliced 1/8 inch thick and cut into 1-by-1 inch triangular tree-shaped pieces
  • 1˝ teaspoons salt
  • ˝ teaspoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoons peanut oil, or flavorless vegetable oil

  • How To Cook:
    PREPARE AHEAD:
    1. In a small bowl, cover the mushrooms with ˝ cup of warm water and let them soak for 30 minutes. Remove them with a slotted spoon.

    2. With a cleaver or sharp knife, cut away and discard the tough stems of the mushrooms and cut each cap into quarters. Strain the soaking water through a fine sieve and reserve 2 tablespoons of it.

    3. Snap off the tips of the fresh snow peas and remove the strings from the pea pods.

    4. Have the above ingredients, and the oil, bamboo shoots, salt and sugar within easy reach.

    TO COOK:
    1. Set a 12-inch wok or 10-inch skillet over high heat for 30 seconds. Pour in the 2 tablespoons of oil, swirl it about in the pan and heat for another 30 seconds, turning the heat down to moderate if the oil begins to smoke.

    2. Immediately drop in the mushrooms and bamboo shoots, and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add the snow peas, salt and sugar, and then 2 tablespoons of the reserved mushroom-soaking water.

    3. Cook, stirring constantly at high heat, for about 2 minutes, or until the water evaporates. Transfer the contents of the pan to a heated platter and serve at once.
