Family Legacy: Chinese Birthday Misua with Shiitake & Shrimp

My husband grew up to a family tradition of starting birthdays with a bowl of misua for longevity. It's a Birthday Misua recipe I learned from my Mom-in-Law, which she learned from her Mom-in-Law. It's a family legacy that is now a part of birthday celebrations of the 4th generation! Some friends have been asking how it's prepared, so I made sure that I document it the next time I made it.
