Ingredients
Broth
- 8 cups chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
- 3 teaspoon ginger (fresh grated or 1 ½ teaspoon dried ginger powder)
- 8 oz mushrooms (sliced, cremini, white, baby bella or shitake)
- 5 dried wood ear mushrooms (soaked in warm water for 10 minutes and drained, or swap for more cremini mushrooms)
- 4 tablespoon rice vinegar (or white wine vinegar)
- 1 ½ tablespoon red wine vinegar (or white wine vinegar)
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoon Chili garlic sauce (or sriracha or hot sauce of choice)
- 1 ½ teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon white pepper (or black pepper)
Add In's
- 8 oz bamboo shoots (canned, drained (optional))
- 8 oz tofu (firm, cut into small cubes or strips)
- 4 tablespoon cornstarch
- 4 tablespoon water
- 2 eggs (whisked)
- 3 green onions (thinly sliced)
Garnish
- green onions (thinly sliced)
- crispy chow mein noodles
Instructions
- To a large soup pot add all of the soup broth ingredients. Bring to a boil on medium high heat for 6-8 minutes.
- Add in the sliced tofu and bamboo shoots. Stir to combine.
- In a small bowl mix together the cornstarch and water until smooth. When the soup is simmering pour in the cornstarch mixture and stir continuously. Allow to simmer for 1-2 minutes or until the soup is thickened.
- In a small bowl add the eggs and whisk them or beat them with a fork until evenly combined. While the soup is still simmering, stir the soup slowly in a circular motion and slowly pour the whisked eggs into the soup to create the egg ‘ribbons’. Once all the egg mixture has been poured in, stop stirring the soup and allow the eggs to set for 1 minute.
- Adjust the soup to taste to your desired spice level. Add additional chili garlic sauce or sriracha hot sauce in 1 teaspoon increments to increase the spice level.
- Garnish the soup with green onions and crispy chow mein noodles and enjoy!
