- 1/2 pound whole-wheat linguine
- 2 1/2 cups canned low-sodium chicken broth or homemade stock
- 1/4 cup dry sherry
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 (2 inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
- 3 scallions including green tops, cut into thin slices
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 pound shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, caps cut into thin slices
- 1 pound salmon fillet, skinned, cut into pieces
- 1 quart spinach leaves
- 1/4 pound bean sprouts
- In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the linguine until almost done, about 12 minutes. Drain.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the broth, sherry, soy sauce, ginger, scallions, and salt. Bring to a simmer and continue simmering, covered, for 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and the salmon to the broth and simmer, covered, until the fish is just cooked through, about 6 minutes for a 3/4-inch-thick fillet. Remove the salmon from the broth.
- Stir the pasta, spinach, and bean sprouts into the broth. Cover and simmer until the pasta is done, about 3 minutes. Put the linguine and vegetables into serving bowls. Top with the salmon and ladle the ginger broth over the top.
