Add stock mixture; when it comes to slow boil, add ginger and Cloud Ear fungus; cook fungus for about 1 minute.

Poach for about 1 minute or until flaky and milky white. Avoid overcooking. Stir in sesame oil. Serve. Variation: Use thinly sliced water chestnuts in place of Cloud Ear black fungus; garnish with minced green onion. -----
