Taiwanese Hot and Sour Soup with Leftover Vegetables Taiwanese Hot and Sour Soup with Leftover Vegetables
I love this hot and sour soup. It warms your body from the core on a cold day. It also livens up your appetite on a hot day.I used to add chicken to this soup, but I think it tastes better if you just add vegetable, so I changed the recipe. You can also use any leftover vegetables, tofu etc. in your fridge. Recipe by Setsubunhijiki cookpad.japan -
Taiwanese Hot and Sour Soup Made with the Cooking Liquid Taiwanese Hot and Sour Soup Made with the Cooking Liquid
I made this soup with the cooking liquid from "Moist Boiled Chicken".Since my family does not like sour food, the amount of vinegar may be subtle. If you like sour food, I recommend adding more vinegar. I think it tastes better if you use a generous amount of Ra-yu. Recipe by John Lee Cooker cookpad.japan -
Chinese Hot & Sour Soup Chinese Hot & Sour Soup
I personally find that Chinese soup is very complex and not to my liking. But somehow or rather, I began to appreciate this soup when I started out cooking. Because I get to choose what kinda ingredients I am gonna use. I discard the dogma of preparing this soup with a pork base and used mushrooms for my base. This is my Chinese version of mushroom soup, you can call it that way.This soup is also 100% vegetarian. You can make this vegan by omitting the egg and some of the sauces. I do not know if they are vegan friendly tho. You can definitely replace them with homemade chili oil and chili bean sauce. You can also replace soy sauce with tamari sauce. Another reason why I had learn to appreciate this soup is it is spicy, sour, savory (even tho there's no meat) and it is hearty. This will definitely keep me warm in those cold weather and season. I hope it will keep you cozy this festive season as well. Daniel Lim -

Hot and Sour Asian Soup Hot and Sour Asian Soup
Hot and sour soup is my favorite Chinese soup. While in the grocery store one day, I discovered these new Swansons flavor infused chicken and beef broths. The broth is fantastic and takes the guesswork out of how much of certain Asian spices you should use. It's super simple took me less than 15 minutes to make the soup. And the best part is it was delicious will definitely make again cdkaleczyc -
