Misua

Description
Misua is the name for fine rice noodles used mostly for soup dishes because of its tendency to get soggy once it becomes wet. The secret of the simple Misua soup from the Philippines is the sautéed garlic. Eggs and rice vermicelli make this a filling and satisfying meal - fast and easy enough to whip up on your lunch hour.
