I used dried shiitake mushrooms that I soaked in hot water for 20 minutes, Sliced and strained the liquid into the soup. Used fresh ground pepper flakes a nice kick! And fresh sliced cabbage added a carrot which did need more then 5 minutes of cooking more like 20 minutes. ;) Was just so good and comforting! Thanks, L,L,& L, Rita

Made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup tag game and this was a great hit! I did use a variety of mushrooms (shiitake, oysters and a couple of crimini) and I used napa cabbage so I also grated some carrots to add to the mix. I also add a few red pepper flakes for a kick. Definately a keeper and going into my Favorites of 2013.

I love to cook and share good food with other people. I have a very large collection of cookbooks. I used to enjoy being able to look up recipes on Zaar by ingredients I had on hand. I miss the Zaar tag game community. Everyone was so nice, and it was super fun. Ah, the good ol' days.
