1. Prepare Bok Choy
Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and add salt. Blanch the baby bok choy for 1 to 2 minutes, then promptly remove and cool under cold running water. Drain and arrange on a serving platter.
2. Stir-fry Shiitake Mushrooms
Heat a wok or heavy cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil and small dry red Chinese hot peppers, followed by shiitake mushrooms seasoned with salt and pepper. Stir-fry until the mushrooms start to brown.
3. Add Aromatics and Glaze
Stir in minced garlic and grated ginger. Add sugar, sesame oil, and tamari or soy sauce to create a glaze, stirring until the mushrooms are coated and the sauce thickens.
4. Finish and Serve
Spoon the glazed shiitakes over the bok choy. Optionally, scatter sliced scallions and sprinkle toasted sesame seeds on top. Warm the assembled dish in the oven if desired.
