I LOOOOOVE hot and sour soup!
This soup is the best for me 👌
When I’m sick I want hot and sour soup 🙂 it beats chicken soup for a long shot😀 It’s my favorite soup
You seem very impatient with your father! Snatching the bowls of prepared ingredients to put them into the pot faster than he does. Are you on a time limit? Also you remind your father of other ingredients he would use and you then state "But we aren't going to use them ingredients"… Not sure what is going on with you both. I hope it is a healthy relationship and not a angry one.
Love Lenny
Love this soup. Also love miso soup.
Favorite soup?
Chicken noodle,clam chowder,lobster bisque, albondigas,minestrone,won ton,pho,Tom yum,ramen… I've never met a soup I didn't like. I haven't tried the tripe.
My favorite soup!👍
I used much more Black Vinegar and White Pepper to bring it closer to the flavor from my favorite Chinese restaurant. Still, a very good recipe.
My favorite soup. I have tried for years to make it but with no luck. Now I have a real recipe. Thank you
I love hot and sour !!!
I’m having a bowl right now. I’m a vegetarian so I used vegetable broth and imitation ham slices, it’s still good no difference. I might have accidentally spilled some sake in, sorry about that. 😉
This may come as a shock to some people, but my favorite soup is hot and sour soup with wontons. The broth that is used for wonton soup is in my opinion very Bland. My personal favorite way to eat wonton soup is to place the wontons from the wonton soup into a bowl of delicious hot and sour soup. Unfortunately, I have to do this at home because I have yet to find a Chinese restaurant here in Eastern Canada that will prepare me such a dish.
I would think a better substitute to hard to find fresh shiitake mushrooms would be dried shiitake mushrooms. They also don’t taste like wood ear fungus.
I really like the way the son is always like, “hey dad, what would you do here?!” and the dad says, “we do this.” And the son replies, “yeah…we’ll we’re gonna do this.”
Love this can't wait to try it
My Favourite soup is….drum roll…Hot Sweet and Sour Soup…with the Hong Kong noodles…Yummy in the Tummy
Man, one third bowl of egg drop soup, two-thirds bowl of the hot and sour, add 2-3 soup wontons, and I'm in seventh heaven, cloud nine.
I love the title: Hunger Pangs.
I love hot and sour soup but usually don’t eat meat in mine I wonder if you can make this without the pork

Hot and sour soup has always been my favorite! Thank you for the recipe. I can’t wait to try it!
So it's like breadsticks at Olive Garden? No not exactly 😂
The white pepper clumps if you add it after the corn starch. Corn starch should be the last thing you add, folks.
I love this two!!
My local Chinese take out does excellent hot and sour soup. It now costs 5$ per1 quart. I can tell if someone else made the soup on any visit. I only get their food because of this soup! Thank you for teaching the technique and giving recipe.

Thank you 😊
thank you, i love hot sour soup! (i always add more vinegar than it calls for, i like it quite sharp!)
Thank you for the recipe, I love hot and sour soup!
I've never seen this channel before. I laughed because me and my mate used to have mock fights with pans or woks and the noise we made, when pretending to be hit was 'Paaaaang' Happy memories. And my favourite soup. ♥️
Would’ve really love to see how the tofu looks your grandmother’s method because I suspect it would look different than when you squeeze the water out
Egg drop soup
Too much talking…
I will try this recipe! Thank you for sharing!
Jeffrey is the best✨👌🏻
Hot & Sour soup my all time favorite – I eat it any time of day, can't get enough! It looks so simple to make…..I may try to do it myself – thanks for making your recipes seem so simple & easy to make.
The first time I go a new Chinese restaurant I always order hot and sour soup. If it's not good I don't go back.
Hot and sour soup is my favorite! Wonderful video!!!
