Answers:
You can substitute Chinese rice wine, sherry, any dry white wine, any red wine, 2 tsp of sherry vinegar or nothing (in that order) for the sake!. You may substitute any sliced mushroom for the enoki, and negi are Japanese scallions - so use one of those!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Of course - just substitute something acidic like white wine vinegarWww@FoodAQ@Com
