Hi everyone, there's something wrong with the soundtrack in this video. So I made a new Hot and Sour Soup video. Please click here kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4i6ia2AeJegfKs ☺️☺️☺️🍲🍲🍲

[@liuzhou]

perhaps you should delete the faulty video and stop wasting people's time, then!

[@ACrowLover]

I don't like your replacement video! Why did you change the meat from pork to chicken? I don't eat birds!

[@rashadabdullah9769]

Thx. Was just gonna comment on that.

[@markwrobel4725]

YOU are a GODDESS! THANK you for your work and recipes you've brought me a great deal of joy!

[@susanjerrell9220]

I had no problem understanding the part of the video that had no sound. Maybe it's just my intelligence or kindness that let me continue to enjoy this wonderful and FREE video. 💕

[@thomasgrim4325]

My favorite version is the one you just prepared. Of course many fast food Chinese restaurants can not fuss so much and get it as beautiful as yours. Chinese hot and sour soap to me is more than just a soup, it is medicinal, it is a delicious and even spiritual experience. It literally makes me feel better quickly. Thanks so much for sharing your talent a wonderful personality.

Hi everyone! The soundtrack of this video suddenly got some problems. You can check out same video on my Facebook Page. It has a perfect soundtrack here facebook.com/cicili/videos/505302943560412/?vh=e&extid=0

I am craving hot and sour soup now! It’s the right time of the year to make it too.

[@karienslaven4273]

I love it also

[@emmaquartey-cofie9675]

@@karienslaven4273 hi Ksrien very nice and tasty hot and sour soup. My husband doesn't like mushrooms at all. Can this soup be cooked without mushrooms? And yes what's the alternate to the mushrooms. Thanks Emma

[@yokohaloless2286]

I saw this today and immediately had to try it. Local restaurant I used to get this soup at closed and I had a craving. Had to improvise a little on the black vinegar (seasoned rice vinegar with a pinch of sugar) and dark soy sauce (1 part soy, 1 part molasses), but it turned out excellent anyway. Thank you for the recipe! ^_^

[@CiCiLi]

Yoko Haloless, I'm glad that the recipe turns out well! Love how you improvised it. Happy New Year and happy eating! 😄

[@carlrevis140]

Given that my mom is Cantonese, and nothing ever beats mom's cooking, my mom's hot and sour soup, Cantonese style is awesome. I have it in Chinese restaurants and it's just okay. She watched your video and says yours is perfect! 👍

[@CiCiLi]

I'm flattered by her compliment!! 😄🙏

[@Geanerikc_Ent.]

I love this style of soup! I use veggie stock instead of chicken as I'm allergic to poultry. Definitely in my top 5 for soups!

[@CiCiLi]

Yep. You can totally replace it with vegetable stock. Cheers to yummy good soup for this winter! :)

[@cheeto.1]

This is the best version on KZbin. It was delicious & big hit at my dinner party. Thanks for making me a superstar chef

[@CiCiLi]

Tl Cheeto, So happy to hear your feedback. I'm glad that everyone loves your hot and sour soup! 👩‍🍳

[@darreng1918]

Mmmmm.....! My favorite hot and sour soup was made in my local China Town restaurant in Calgary Alberta called GEE GONG it had pork, chicken and shrimp. The restaurant closed in 2013 due to city wide major flood. How I miss that soup. Another great video.

[@blackhorse2947]

Of all the soups……..this is my most favorite and made

Thank you CiCi. I've made hot and sour soup using other recipes but I have to say yours is exactly like what my mom use to make. Thanks so much.

[@marlies7444]

Love that you used both mushrooms. I like mine without the meat, but like the addition of a few dried lily buds. And glad to see that you added the white pepper and black vinegar at the end. Your soup looked perfect to me.

I’m glad that you’ve enjoyed this video! Now I’m craving for some hot and sour soup too. Cheers 😊👍🍲

For myself, I add sichuan dried chilis to make it spicy, and I splash in a little bit of rose wine for a delicious aroma and flavour. Great recipe. Thanks!

[@CiCiLi]

Chantal Ward Thats sounds yummy. Thanks for sharing your recipe with me!

[@kenjiyamaha2879]

Hi Ci Ci Li! Big fan of your great simple and nutritious foods. Hot n sour soup is a great favorite of mine in the chinese restaurants. I followed your instructions as a guide and skipped the pork as I am Muslim, just substituted left over fried chicken shredded up. I also added chinese chives, lily buds, poblano peppers and plenty of sambal olek as I have a craving for spicy things!! Hehehee I made the flavors to taste, for me rather strong. Turned out realllly good. Thanks for the tips and techniques. Best, Fauzan

[@VianneyCreates]

Wow! I just made this soup. I might use a wee bit less white pepper next time, but the flavor is soooo good! The whole family loved it. Thank you so much for another great recipe!!

I love hot and sour soup with sizzling rice, sometimes. :) I will for sure try your recipe. I thank you so much for taking the time to share the preparation with health in mind. You look quite beautiful. No doubt you know how to take care of yourself. :)

[@JR-ke7wl]

I made this tonight and it was fantastic!! Closest to restaurant style hot and sour soup (before the restaurant I use to love getting it from started cutting corners on how they made it) that Ive made at home (Ive tried a couple of recipes). If you would like to make it a little more sour bump up the vinegar a tiny bit to your liking, of course tasting it first and I would suggest only to your own bowl of soup. I would also say it is neither easy nor fast to make since there is so much prep work involved, but well worth it in the end! Its a keeper!! Thanks for the great video and recipe!!!! I really enjoyed hearing the background on the soup.

[@sadfaery]

My favorite hot and sour soup is sold at a Chinese restaurant in Tallahassee, Florida called Zheng's. The owners are from Fujian Province and there's such a wonderful flavor to the way they make their hot and sour soup.

[@subhajyotimukherjee3128]

Hi CiCi - I am a big fan of your simple cooking. Thanks for making such difficult dish so easy to make. I did this for me and wife and both of us liked it very much though I did it for 2 person and proportion was not very correct. Thanks again. SM / Australia

[@CiCiLi]

Glad to hear that you enjoyed my videos! Sorry to know that the ratio didn’t come out right for you. I hope it works out next time. Best wishes!

[@zhubajie6940]

For some reason, I always like to add some seaweed sheet (海苔 hai3​tai2). Seems to moderate the acidity in the stomach but still keep the vinegar tanginess.

[@PYsKitchen]

That looks and sounds delicous! 🤤

[@johnmagill9496]

Yeah and I'll bet that soup is good too.

[@melanieviselli9706]

My mom has a collection of cookbooks that would choke a horse. I don't think she's ever really used them (we have good cooks in our family) unless she is making something she has only made once or twice. She started out making hot and sour soup from each cook book, I don't know how many months or years it took to go through the bulk of them. When none of the recipes did it for her she would just combine her favorite parts from each one into her master recipe. I don't know if it lives up to the sort of hot and sour soup that you would make, but I have to say it is better than any I have had from a restaurant.

[@CiCiLi]

Your mom is so cute. I can totally picture her doing all those. Thank you for your kind words! Happy holidays and stay warm! :)

[@toddatkinson5830]

Don't know why You Tube took so long to suggest this for me but I will be at the Asian Market tomorrow. Great Job CiCi Li

very nice video

[@H2Dwoat]

Hi, that looked wonderful 👍. Do you think you can refrigerate and reheat the soup? If so how long will it keep for in the fridge?

[@CiCiLi]

H2Dwoat, it’s best to eat the hot and sour soup right away. If you keep it in the fridge overnight, when you heat it up again the next day, you may have to add additional cornstarch slurry to thicken it again. You might also have to add more vinegar and white pepper as well, as those tastes might be evaporated.

[@andrewbradshaw9034]

Hi, This looks very nice and I intend trying it, but I would like to know why there are different proportions between the pork and chicken versions please. The sauce for the chicken has more Chinkiang vinegar, more white pepper and the soup itself more eggs and extra rice vinegar. Thanks.

Delilah, my hot and sour soup recipe is gluten free. I used cornstarch as its thickening agent. There’s no flour in it. :)

[@feldon27]

I love to make hot & sour soup. Very similar to my recipe after a lot of trial-and-error. One difference for me, instead of all Chinkiang Vinegar, I use a mixture of it, red wine vinegar, and balsamic vinegar. Maybe it makes it a bit more Western and not accurate, but I thought it was more complex and interesting. Good tip about adding corn starch slurry near the end to keep the colors and flavor bright. One thing is I add some chili oil as I like to have some kick to it. :)

[@CiCiLi]

Morgan Feldon, thank you for sharing your hot and sour soup recipe with me! Traditonally only white pepper power was added for the spiciness of this soup. But of course, there are a variety of ways to cook it now based on different preferences.

[@lindakachur4862]

I also don't like Chinkiang vinegar, so just use regular white vinegar which will taste a-mazingly!

[@chuckprahl170]

I like to cube my tofu and stir fry it with my meat and vegetables first other than the green onions. Also don't add any salt until the end but good recipe.
