I have been making variations of this soup for more than 30 years and have never tired of it. You can vary the flavor by using sherry wine or dry vermouth and by using a mixture of mushrooms such as button, shitake and/or Portobello. A good substitute for cooking sherry is the Javanese “Saos Tape Siau Hing” which can be purchased in most large supermarkets here, where it is usually found in the section with the various kecaps.
