INSTRUCTIONS
Cut the tofu in 1/2-inch squares. Peel the asparagus stems if they
are tough or gritty; cut asparagus in 1/8-inch slices, on a steep
diagonal. Put all the ingredients except the asparagus in a large
saucepan; cover the pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer,
uncovered, for 10 minutes. Add the asparagus and cook for 1 minute
more. Serve hot or refrigerate until needed and then reheat. This
recipe yields about 5 cups of soup. Comments: This is a light,
porkless version of the traditionally hearty hot and sour soup. May
be made ahead and reheated just before serving. Recipe Source:
