GLASS NOODLE CASSEROLE WITH SHIITAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Soak the noodles in boiling water.
• When they are soft and transparent, drain well and discard any bits which stay white.
• Meanwhile, prepare the vegetables.
• Layer them in a small deep casserole dish with the noodles.
• Drizzle with the oyster sauce, and pour over the chicken stock, enough to just cover. (You may not need all 4 cups.)
• Bake at 350°F for 20 minutes.
• Serve garnished with the cilantro, if you like.

SPICY GLASS NOODLES WITH SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• Place the noodles in a large bowl, cover with room-temperature water and soak until pliable, about 30 minutes. Drain. Place dried shiitakes in a medium bowl, cover with room-temperature water and soak until hydrated and soft, about 30 minutes. Drain the mushrooms, remove their stems, and julienne the caps.
• While the noodles and mushrooms soak, heat the grapeseed oil in a large lidded skillet over medium-high, uncovered. Stir-fry the garlic, ginger and scallion until light golden, about 1 minute. Add the shiitakes and continue to stir-fry until golden, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in the cabbage and curry powder, then 3 tablespoons soy sauce. Reduce heat to medium, cover and cook until the cabbage is wilted and has given up its natural juices, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add the drained noodles and remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Increase heat to high, and stir-fry until noodles absorb the juices and are cooked through yet still chewy, 1 to 2 minutes. Drizzle with sesame oil, toss well, sprinkle with cilantro and serve immediately.
