Instructions
 

  • If using dried yuba, rehydrate to package instructions or soak in warm water for 10 minutes completely submerged. Strain and set aside.
  • To a pot, add water, potatoes, and salt. Bring to a boil, and boil the potatoes just a little under fork tender. Strain the potatoes, and set aside to cool.
  • To the pot with boiling water, add mushrooms and blanch for 1-2 minutes. Strain and set aside.
  • Next add the yuba (bean curd) sticks and boil for 2-3 minutes. Strain and set aside. Discard the water.
  • To a wok over medium heat, add oil and allow it to heat up.
  • Add scallions, garlic, and ginger and sauté for 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the mushrooms and sauté for 1 minutes.
  • Add the potatoes and yuba sticks and stir to combine.
  • Add the light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, salt, and vegetable broth. Stir to combine, cover with lid, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Add corn starch slurry, and stir continuously to allow the sauce to thicken to a velvety consistency.
  • Garnish with scallion greens and serve with steamed brown rice and bok choy.

Notes

  • Soak yuba sticks in warm water for 30-40 minutes before using to rehydrate them properly.
  • Slice shiitake mushrooms evenly so they cook uniformly.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste—some prefer a slightly sweeter or saltier sauce.
  • Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to 3 days.
