Dried Daikon with Vegetables and Ginger

This dish is great for those times when you want to do a bit of internal house cleaning. Aiding the liveer, kidneys and intestines in their jobs, this dish will kick butt in the cleanse department...and it's pretty yummy, too. 

Ingredients
6-8 thin slices fresh ginger, fine matchstick pieces
2 cup dried arame, rinsed several times, soaked 5 minutes, until tender 
2 cup dried daikon, rinsed, soaked until tender 
2 dried shiitake, soaked until tender, thinly sliced 
spring or filtered water
soy sauce 

Directions 
Layer ginger, arame, daikon and shiitake. Add water to half cover ingredients. Add a splash of soy sauce, cover and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce to low and simmer for 40 minutes. Season lightly with soy sauce and simmer 5 minutes more. Remove cover and raise heat to medium and allow any remaining liquid to cook away. Stir gently and transfer to a serving bowl. Makes 4-5 servings.
