    Ubiquitous for good reason!

  2. Terrific and easy. I made this as written, just added sliced onion and used sliced portabella mushrooms in place of shiitakes. The sauce was perfect; not too runny and not too thick. I loved this with the tofu, but if you have meat-lovers, you could easily used chicken or pork or fish instead. Happy Chinese New Year! Thanks for sharing!

    I’ve become a huge bok choy fan and my local market always has organic baby bok choy. This is going to make a wonderful meatless dish for us this week. thanks Raymund!
