1/4 lb Shiitake mushrooms, stems

1/2 Inch piece gingerroot,
Peeled and minced
2 ts Finely minced mint
1 tb Bottled hot teriyaki sauce
8 lg Romaine leaves, cleaned,

STEAMING LIQUID:

1/2 c Packed mint leaves
1/2 Lemon, thinly sliced
1 Inch gingerroot, thinly

SAUCE:
4 tb Bottled hot teriyaki sauce

1. To prepare the marinated salmon: Cut salmon fillet
crosswise into 4
pieces; pour into a glass pan. Combine two
tablespoons teriyaki sauce,
lemon juice and mint. Pour over the salmon and
refrigerate one hour.

2. To prepare the vegetables: Heat oil over a nonstick
skillet set over
medium heat. When hot, add the mushrooms and
ginger; saute until
softened, about four minutes. Add the mint and 1
tablespoon teriyaki
sauce and bring to a boil. Saute 1 minute. Remove
from the pan.

3. To prepare the steaming liquid: Put the water,
mint, lemon and ginger
into a large pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the
heat slightly so that
the liquid remains at a low boil. Fit a steamer
basket or rack over
the top. Lay the romaine leaves on top, cover and
steam 4 minutes,
until wilted. Remove the lettuce from the steamer.

4. Remove the salmon from the marinade. (Discard the
marinade.) Spoon the
mushrooms over each piece of salmon and wrap each
in 2 of the steamed
romaine leaves. Place on the steamer and steam
twelve minutes per inch
of thickness. Test the salmon in the center for
doneness.

5. While the salmon is steaming, prepare the sauce:
Stir together the
teriyaki sauce, lemon juice, sugar and mint. Serve
on the side of the
salmon.
