Using noodles is absolutely forbidden! I will send the Rice Police
after you! Heh.

One of the things I think it is better to use rice is that Japanese
rice (so-called "sushi rice") really soaks up liquid. A lot of the
broth that you ladle on with the chicken and egg gets absorbed while
you eat, and you end up with no "loose" liquid by the time you finish
the dish.
