Ingredients

  • 1 quart Chicken Stock
  • 1 cup Soy Sauce
  • 1 - 2 teaspoons freshly ground White Pepper (This is what gives it flavor and makes it "hot." So be sure to use only FRESHLY GROUND White Pepper to get the best flavor and most heat.)
  • 6 ounces Bamboo Shoots cut into strips
  • 6 ounces Wood Ear Mushrooms (Substitute canned Straw Mushrooms, if wood ear can not be found) cut into strips
  • 6 ounces Chicken Breasts fully cooked and cut into thin strips
  • 1/2 cup Cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup Water
  • 2 Eggs beaten
  • 4 ounces White Vinegar
  • 6 ounces Silken Tofu cut into strips
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil

Instructions

  • Pour chicken stock into a large stock pot or Dutch oven. Place over medium high heat and bring to a boil.
  • Add soy sauce, white pepper, bamboo shoots, mushrooms and chicken. Stir. Cook for 3 minutes.
  • In a small bowl combine cornstarch and water. Stir to make slurry.
  • Add slurry to soup a little at a time and stir until thick (all slurry may not be necessary, so add as much as necessary for desired thickness.)
  • Slowly pour in beaten eggs in a thin stream while stirring constantly. Cook for 30 seconds or until eggs are done.
  • Turn off heat.
  • Add vinegar, tofu and sesame oil. Gently give it a quick stir.
  • Spoon into bowls. Or for even better taste, make a day in advance and store in a tightly sealed container, in the refrigerator, overnight to allow the flavors to develop and meld. Reheat before serving.
