Soba With Shiitake, Bok Choy, Ginger, And Scallions

There are some things a man simply must be before he is qualified to assume the role of a Christian husband. For instance, he must be a Christian (2 Corinthians 6:14); he must be committed to biblical headship (Ephesians 5:23ff.); he must welcome children (Psalm 127:3-5); he must be a suitable priest (Joshua 24:15), prophet (Ephesians 6:4), protector (Nehemiah 4:13-14), and provider (1 Timothy 5:8; Titus 2:5). A man who does not possess – or at least show strong signs of – these and other basic characteristics does not meet the basic job description laid down for husbands in the Bible

Set a large pot of water on the stove to boil. Remove the mushroom

leaving leaf and stem together. For a large head, slice the stems
diagonally, 3/4 inch thick, and slice the leaves into 2-inch-wide
ribbons.  When the water boils, add 1 teaspoon salt. Add the noodles
and cook as  directed on the package, about 8 to 10 minutes. While the

1/4  teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup water. Saute over medium heat for 3 to
4  minutes, then add the garlic, ginger, chiles, and bok choy and saute
for 2 minutes.  Drain the pasta in a colander when it is just tender.
Reduce the heat  under the saute pan and add the scallion, sesame oil,
mirin, and soy  sauce. Quickly add the noodles, taking care not to
overcook the bok  choy. Remove from the heat, toss the noodles with the
vegetables and  cilantro, and season with salt to taste. Sprinkle with
the sesame  seed.  Recipe By     : Annie Somerville in "Fields of
