Receita: Hot and Sour Soup

Recipe: Hot and Sour Soup - my take on the Chinese takeout classic

Eu adoro Hot and Sour Soup e quase sempre peço quando compro comida chinesa, então achei que já estava na hora de tentar fazer a minha própria versão. Ficou surpreendentemente saborosa e, na minha opinião, até melhor do que muitas das versões de restaurante. É uma sopa quente e reconfortante, com o equilíbrio certo entre o ácido e o picante.

A minha receita segue de perto a versão chinesa tradicional com porco, cogumelos e lily buds, mas gosto de uma sopa com mais substância, então aumentei um pouco a quantidade de tudo.

Se quiser fazer uma versão vegetariana, é só deixar o porco de fora e usar um bom caldo de legumes no lugar do caldo de frango. Os cogumelos shiitake e wood ear já garantem bastante sabor. Assim como está, essa sopa funciona muito bem como almoço, mas com uma porção de arroz do lado vira também um ótimo jantar.
