Mustard Greens With Straw Mushrooms - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 to 4 head Chinese mustard greens
3 Tbsp. peanut, vegetable or corn oil
1 1/2 tsp. sugar
1 (15 oz.) can straw mushrooms, drained
2 3/4 c. chicken broth
2 Tbsp. cornstarch

Preparation

Discard tough outer leaves and cut off tough base end of each set of mustard greens.
Also remove the soft leafy portion, leaving the firm center portions.
Cut these pieces into 1 1/2-inch lengths.
Wash and drain well.
Boil a small amount of water (enough to later cover greens).
Add the greens.
Let the water return to a boil; drain greens and drop immediately into cold water, then drain well (this blanching tenderizes the tougher mustard greens).
