???????? Hot And Sour Soup With Tofu Recipe | How To Make Hot And Sour Soup With Tofu
I love making this Hot And Sour soup with Tofu. It always brightens me up when I have this soup.
This Hot And Sour Soup with Tofu is also called Tau Foo Kang Soup. I usually make it with crab meat, but if you don't have crab meat, don't worry about it; continue making it. I promise you it will still taste delicious.
I have customized the Hot and Sour soup to my liking, and there are many ingredients that I add more than usual. It just the way we like it. You can feel free to adjust according to your preference.
This soup is excellent when you are craving something hot, spicy, sour, seafood and Tofu. You can satisfy your craving in one magical one-pot-kind-of soup.
It fills you up, and your hot belly is happy after that. I remember making this soup for our Chinese New Year Eve, and everyone can't stop talking about it.
But, one thing about the vinegar. I usually use 浙醋 vinegar and sometimes I will use up to 1/2-1 cup of 浙醋 vinegar.
Since I run out of the 浙醋 vinegar, I use a few teaspoons of white vinegar as it has more sourness concentration. But anyhow, adjust up to your liking and preferences.
I hope you will enjoy this Hot And Sour Soup With Tofu.

???? RECIPE - Note: The product links below are affiliate links. I may earn a commission if you purchase an item on a linked website within 24 hours.
Main Ingredients
- 2 pieces of dried shitake mushroom [Amazon link:
- few pieces of dried black fungus [Amazon link:
- 3.5 ounces of shredded pork (marinate with 2 tsp of soy sauce +2 tsp of cornstarch)
- 5 ounces of silken or soft tofu, cut it into thin shreds
- 2 beaten eggs
- 1/3 cups of shredded carrot
- 1/2 tbsp of minced ginger
- 3.5 cups of chicken stock
Seasonings to add early
- 2 tbsp of cornstarch
- 2 tbsp of water
- 1.5 tbsp of soy sauce [Pearl River Bridge Natural Brewed Light Soy Sauce:
- 1 tsp of dark soy sauce [Pearl River Bridge Superior Dark Soy Sauce:
- 1 tsp of sugar
- 1 tsp of Salt or to taste
Ingredients to add before turning off the heat
- 1-3 tsp of white peppercorn (depends on how spicy do you want)
- 3 tbsp of Chinese black vinegar [Zhengjiang black vinegar镇江香醋:
Ingredients to add before serving
- 1 tsp of sesame oil [Amazon Link:
- cilantro and spring onion for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
- Soak the dried shitake mushrooms and black fungus for 4 hours until they are completely re-hydrated. Slice them thinly.
- Cut 3.5 ounces of pork into thin shreds. Marinade with 2 tsp of soy sauce and 2 tsp of cornstarch. Let that sit for about 15 minutes.
- Cut 5 ounces of silken or soft tofu into thin shreds.
- Beat 2 eggs.
- Cut some carrot into thin shreds.
- Mince 1/2 tbsp of ginger.
- In a small sauce bowl, combine 2 tbsp of cornstarch +2 tbsp of water together. Mix it until you don’t see any lumps then add 1.5 tbsp of soy sauce, 1 tsp of dark soy sauce, 1 tsp of sugar, 1 tsp of Salt or to taste. Mix until everything is well combined. These are the Seasoning that you need to add to the soup earlier.
- In another sauce bowl combine 1 tbsp of freshly ground white pepper and 3 tbsp of Chinese black vinegar. Mix it until the pepper is fully distributed. These 2 ingredients you need to add to the soup right before turning off the heat.
- It is very important to follow the order. That is why made 2 different bowls of seasoning so I don’t get confused.
- In a wok, add 1/2 tbsp of minced ginger, the re-hydrated mushroom and black fungus, the shredded carrot, and 3.5 cups of stock. Give it a stir.
- Cover it and bring it to a boil. Add the pork. Stir it around so the meat doesn’t stick together. Give it about 10 seconds or so. The meat should change color. Then you add the tofu. Use a wooden spoon, gently stir it and try not to break the tofu.
- Cover it and wait for it to come back to a boil. Pour in the sauce. Whisk the soup while adding the sauce. Stir in the beaten egg.
- Cook this whole pot for another 30 seconds so all the ingredients can come together.
- Add the other bowl of seasoning - white pepper and vinegar. They are the types of ingredient that the flavor will fade way if cook long time. That is why we add it 10 seconds before you turn off the heat.
- Before you serve, add a bunch of scallion and cilantro for garnish. Top 1.5 tsp of sesame oil for the nutty taste. And you are done.
