(about 2 minutes).
Chinese noodles: usually fine, clear noodles made of mungo bean, tapioca or soya bean

they are soft (about 10 minutes), then drain and cut with scissors.
Rice noodles: made from rice flour and water; prepare the same as Chinese noodles.
Basmati rice: a high-quality variety, very aromatic when cooked.
Long-grain rice: remains grainy after cooking; firm to the bite.
Siam rice (sticky rice): the grains stick to each other after cooking. Ideal when eating with
chopsticks.
Wild rice: not actually rice, but the seeds of a North American grass. It is black and is
suitable for mixing with the varieties of rice described above. Wild rice has a distinct nutty
flavour.

Tongu mushrooms: dark brown, usually dried; soak in warm water for about 10 minutes
before using.

milk.
Wine: In Asia, wine is usually made from rice or millet. A dry sherry can be used as a
