Prepared by McRecipe List by patHanneman 06 Jun 97 Desc: Thai, Korean, and other Asian chiles may be green and/or red and blazing hot, with a clear fiery taste. Short and skinny. May be used in Kung Pao sauce. This clear soup calls for one small fresh red Thai chile. Good quality, flavorful, competitive chicken stock is essential.
