For mixed vegetables, choose from among bell peppers, string beans,
water chestnuts, tomatoes (small cherry tomatoes are best), bamboo
shoots, miniature corn, asparagus, cucumbers, zucchini, Japanese
eggplant, and mushrooms. I particularly like string beans or asparagus,
a few cherry tomatoes, shredded (rather than sliced) bamboo shoots,
miniature corn, and some straw mushrooms or slender (Japanese) eggplant.
