INSTRUCTIONS
PROCEDURE. Cut and prepare all of the fresh and dreid veggies, tofu and
seitan.
After the black musrooms and lily flowers have been soaked and drained, cut
them up so they are not too stringy. NOTE: AVAILABLE ONLY AT ASIAN
GROCERY STORE **.
Simmer the first 3 ingredients for one minute and then remove the ginger.
Combine the last 6 ingredients in a bowl and mix.
Add the carrots, chinese cabbage and black musrooms to the stock and simmer
for 2 minutes.
Add everything else except the scallion greens and baby peas and simmer
another 2 minutes. Be sure to recirculate the lat 6 ingredients in the
bowl to recirculate the arrowroot before adding to the soup.
Add baby peas, adjust the seasongings and serve very hot in bowls.
Garnish with scallion greens.
My own note: After tasting this, I could not tell the difference between
this and the chicken hot and sour served at the local Chinese Restaurants.
