Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Broth: In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a simmer over medium heat.

  2. Add Flavorings: Add bamboo shoots, sliced mushrooms, rice vinegar, soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, sugar, and white pepper to the broth. Stir well to combine. Let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender.

  3. Thicken the Soup: In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water until smooth. Slowly pour the cornstarch mixture into the simmering soup while stirring constantly. This will thicken the soup slightly.

  4. Add Tofu: Gently add the cubed tofu to the soup. Let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes to heat the tofu through.

  5. Add Beaten Eggs: While stirring the soup gently in a circular motion, slowly pour in the beaten eggs. This technique will create egg ribbons in the soup. Cook for another minute until the eggs are set.

  6. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with salt and more white pepper if needed.

  7. Serve: Ladle the hot and sour soup into bowls. Garnish with thinly sliced green onions.

  8. Enjoy: Serve hot and enjoy your delicious homemade Hot & Sour Soup!

This recipe makes approximately 4 servings. Feel free to adjust the spice level and ingredients to suit your taste preferences. Enjoy your soup!
