Of course not, but if one indexes and the other doesn't, you
sort of become a player in the game yourself?

      Title: Hot-&-Sour Mushroom Soup (Tom Yum Het)
 Categories: Thai, Soups
      Yield: 4 servings

      2 c  Defatted reduced-sodium
           -chicken stock
    1/2 lb Oyster mushrooms, trimmed
           -and halved
    1/4 lb Straw mushrooms, trimmed and
           -halved
      2    Serrano chilies, with seeds,
           -cut into thin strips
      1    One-inch piece fresh lemon
           -grass or: *
      2    Fresh kaffir lime leaves or:
           -**
      3 tb Fresh lime juice
      3 tb Fish sauce

  * 1 Tbsp. dried, soaked in warm water for 30 minutes and drained ** 4
  dried, soaked in warm water for 20 minutes, drained, or 1/2 tsp.
  grated lime zest

  This classic central That dish is traditionally made with shrimp or
  chicken, but we prefer using oyster mushrooms since they are just as
  meaty in texture and yet more subtle in taste. Although it is served
  as a soup course in North American Thai restaurants, it actually
  falls somewhere between a soup and a curry. In Thailand, it is served
  as a condiment to rice, just like any of the other dishes on the
  table.

  In a medium-sized saucepan, bring stock to a boil and add mushrooms
  and chilies. Tie lemon grass and lime leaves or zest together in a
  cheesecloth bag and add to the stock mixture. Cook over medium heat
  for about 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender. Reduce heat
  to low and add lime juice and fish sauce. Discard the cheesecloth
  bag. Serve the soup hot, accompanied by steamed rice.
