Delicious soup that is so easy to make. I'm still undecided as to whether it needs any, some or all of the brown sugar, but everything is else perfect. I didn't have snow pea sprouts, so used chopped scallions. Also, I covered the soup during the simmering, so I didn't lose too much liquid. Thanks Sonya.Reply
