+ | ====== Hot & Sour Soup ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | /* Description */ | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Why this recipe works:** Authentic versions of this soup have some hard-to-find ingredients such as mustard pickle, pig’s-foot tendon, and dried sea cucumber—ingredients we couldn’t find in the local grocery store. Using inventory only from our local supermarket, | ||
+ | |||
+ | We created the “hot” side of the soup with two heat sources—distinctive, | ||

+ | ====== Ingredients ====== | ||
+ | * 7 ounces extra-firm tofu , drained | ||
+ | * 4 tablespoons soy sauce | ||
+ | * 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil | ||
+ | * 3 tablespoons cornstarch , plus an additional 1 1/2 teaspoons | ||
+ | * 1 boneless, center-cut, pork loin chop (1/2 inch thick, about 6 ounces), trimmed of fat and cut into 1 inch by 1/8-inch matchsticks | ||
+ | * 3 tablespoons cold water , plus 1 additional teaspoon | ||
+ | * 1 large egg | ||
+ | * 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth | ||
+ | * 1 cup bamboo shoots (from one 5-ounce can), sliced lengthwise into 1/ | ||
+ | * 4 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms , stems removed, caps sliced 1/4 inch thick (about 1 cup) | ||
+ | * 5 tablespoons black Chinese vinegar or 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar plus 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (see note above) | ||
+ | * 2 teaspoons chili oil (see note above) | ||
+ | * 1 teaspoon ground white pepper | ||
+ | * 3 medium scallions , sliced thin | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====== Directions ====== | ||
+ | - Place tofu in pie plate and set heavy plate on top. Weight with 2 heavy cans; let stand at least 15 minutes (tofu should release about 1/2 cup liquid). Whisk 1 tablespoon soy sauce, sesame oil, and 1 teaspoon cornstarch in medium bowl; toss pork with marinade and set aside for at least 10 minutes (but no more than 30 minutes). | ||
+ | - Combine 3 tablespoons cornstarch with 3 tablespoons water in small bowl and mix thoroughly; set aside, leaving spoon in bowl. Mix remaining 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch with remaining 1 teaspoon water in small bowl; add egg and beat with fork until combined. Set aside. | ||
+ | - Bring broth to boil in large saucepan set over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low; add bamboo shoots and mushrooms and simmer until mushrooms are just tender, about 5 minutes. While broth simmers, dice tofu into 1/2-inch cubes. Add tofu and pork, including marinade, to soup, stirring to separate any pieces of pork that stick together. Continue to simmer until pork is no longer pink, about 2 minutes. | ||
+ | - Stir cornstarch mixture to recombine. Add to soup and increase heat to medium-high; | ||
+ | - Without stirring soup, use soupspoon to slowly drizzle very thin streams of egg mixture into pot in circular motion. Let soup sit 1 minute, then return saucepan to medium-high heat. Bring soup to gentle boil, then immediately remove from heat. Gently stir soup once to evenly distribute egg; ladle into bowls and top with scallions. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====== Notes ====== | ||
+ | - To make slicing the pork chop easier, freeze it for 15 minutes. | ||
+ | - We prefer the distinctive flavor of Chinese black vinegar; look for it in Asian supermarkets. If you can't find it, a combination of red wine vinegar and balsamic vinegar approximates its flavor. | ||
+ | - This soup is very spicy. For a less spicy soup, omit the chili oil altogether or add only 1 teaspoon. | ||
