       1 ts Sesame oil
     1/2 c  Dried Chinese blk. mushrooms

   PLACE THE PORK IN THE FREEZER for about 20 minutes or until firm to
   the touch. Then cut into slices, then into shreds. Place meat in a
   large bowl with the marinade ingredients. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
   Soak the mushrooms in a bowl of warm water for about 20 minutes or
   until they are soft and pliable. Squeeze out the excess water and cut
   off and discard the woody stems. Finely shred the caps. Heat a wok or
   large skillet until it is hot and add the oil. When the oil is hot,
   add the pork and stir-fry for 20 seconds. Remove the meat and drain
   off all but 2 table- spoons of oil. Reheat the wok and add the
   mushrooms, chives, ginger, garlic and salt and stir-fry for 2
   minutes. Return the pork to the wok and continue to stir-fry for
   another minute. Finally add the rice wine and give the mixture
   several stirs. Turn onto a platter and serve at once.
