绿豆
In East Asia, the term rice vermicelli is often used to describe the thin rice noodles (米粉) popular in China, also known as "bee hoon" in Hokkien Chinese, mai fun in Cantonese Chinese, วุ้นเส้น (Wûns̄ên) in Thai, ("kya zan") in Burmese, and "bún" in Vietnamese. The term "vermicelli" may also refer to cellophane noodles made from mung bean or sweet potato, which are translucent when cooked, whereas rice vermicelli turns whitish when cooked. Mung bean vermicelli is commonly used in Chinese cuisine. In contrast, misua () is vermicelli that is made of wheat instead of rice. While superficially similar to "bee hoon" it has a very different texture and different culinary uses as well.
