This tastes better if you include several types of mushrooms. Include wood ear mushrooms for their nice texture. (I used button mushrooms, shimeji and shiitake mushrooms this time.) I used cellophane noodles this time, but you can use Chinese mung bean noodles instead, which have a different flavor and texture. Recipe by Kirarinagareboshi
