Tastes delicious ... but 3 TB broth for 8 oz. rice sticks? Even with the vegetable juices and soy sauce, it takes a pint or more of broth to hydrate the rice noodles, an it's still a dry dish (as it's supposed to be), not soupy. I made it with a rounded cup of shrimp and dices ham; more meat would be better.
