    Title: Dave's House Special Soup
    Categories: Seafood, Pork, Poultry, Vegetables, Pasta
    Yield: 4 Servings

    1/2 c Angel hair pasta
    52 oz (3 cans) chicken broth
    4 oz U-60 shrimp; peeled,
    - deveined, tails off
    3 oz Pork; in 2" X 1/8" X 1/8"
    - matchsticks
    3 oz Chicken; in 2" X 3/4" X 1/8"
    - pieces
    1 c Shredded bok choy
    1/2 c Corn niblets
    1/2 lb Sliced button mushrooms
    4 oz Can water chestnuts; drained
    - cut in 1/8" matchsticks
    2 tb Chopped scallions
    1 ts Cornstarch
    1 ts Kikkoman teriyaki sauce

    Break pasta into 1" pieces and set aside.

    In 3 quart saucepan bring broth to a boil. Stir in
    vermicelli, shrimp, pork, chicken, bok choy, corn,
    mushrooms, water chestnuts and scallions.

    Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes.

    Stir cornstarch dissolved into 1 tb water and the
    Teriyaki sauce.

    Cook, stirring constantly until thickened.

    NOTES: This was an attempt to duplicate a soup I had
    enjoyed in a restaurant setting. It makes no claim of
    being authentic - and there was no corn in the original.
    And the original had some coins of carrot - which I did
    not have in stock at the time. And didn't miss in the
    finished product.

    But, I liked it as did my guests
