Hot and Sour Soup (15 Minutes ONLY!)

Hot and Sour Soup (15 Minutes ONLY!)

Who doesn’t love a good bowl of Hot and Sour Soup?

Hot and Sour soup is one of the easiest and tastiest soups that takes less than 15 minutes to make at home. Spicy, savory, and tangy soup is delicious, healthy, and filled with yummy vegetables. I am sharing a vegetarian version today, but you can also add any protein of your choices, such as sliced chicken and pork.

Give this Hot and Sour Soup recipe a try today, and you will be shocked how easy it is to make a classic buffet favorite at home! 

Vegetarian Soup

Growing up, whenever my family went to buffets, I always got myself bowls and bowls of Hot and Sour Soup.

I am a huge soup lover; regardless of what season it is or how warm it is, I will always order soup if it is on the menu.

I also LOVE adding noodles in my Hot and Sour Soup for lunch, I know it is not often seen at restaurants, but this combination is SO delicious and filling! Whenever I make Hot and Sour Soup for dinner, I’ll make sure to save some of the following days to pair with noodles for a perfect lunch ready in less than 10 minutes. 

Hot and Sour Soup (15 Minutes ONLY!)

There are so many Hot and Sour Soup variations, and you can customize it based on your diet, preference, and what you have in the fridge.

I am cooking it with vegetable stock today, but you can also add other ingredients such as wood ear, dried shiitake mushroom, enoki mushroom, cabbage, pork, chicken, and much more! The best part of home cooking is you can constantly tailor it to your liking. 

Hot and Sour Soup (15 Minutes ONLY!)

If you want to add protein to your Hot and Sour Soup, all you have to do is – 

Marinated ½ cup of thinly sliced pork or chicken with 1 tbsp of Soy Sauce and 1 tsp of Corn Starch for 10 minutes. Next, add the meat in and cook for 2-3 minutes before adding in the tofu; the pork should be cut into skinny slices to cook fast.

About Me
Hi! I am Tiffy and I am a HUGE foodie. I love to cook, I love to eat, and I love sharing what I love with the world.
I was born in Taiwan, a country with some of the best street food in the world. When I think back to my childhood, I remember all the fantastic restaurants my dad brought me to when I was young. You see, my family is also huge foodies; we use to wander around night markets every weekend, skip the last period in class to try out new restaurants, and every summer, we would travel around Taiwan exploring all the new “must try” dishes around the country.
