Today's HOT topic is Chinese Hot & Sour soup. I just tried this soup for the first time this past Thursday evening. This soup has ingredients in it to make it both spicy and sour at the same time. I will say, it is very interesting. I can't decide if I like it or not. The broth & most of the ingredients were very good. It wasn't too spicy because the sour part of it cut down on the spice. The thing I didn't like was the tofu in it. It was tiny pieces. I don't suppose I can have them hold the tofu. It is probably already made up. Not a big deal though, I ate around it.
Has anyone ever had this? Do you like it?

The soup looks really good but I'm with you. Can't eat tofu. I find it too rubbery and slimy. Give me raw oysters any day. Ha ha.
Never tried it, I dont normally get soup when I am eating out. BUT - am willing to give it a try
SW - it really does look good. I like that it is beef based...but I agree tofu - blech! (I'll pass on the raw oysters too..you can have my portion..LOL)
Debbie - It is worth a try. I found out that some places don't put the tofu in it. I'm going to be bold and ask if they don't put it in. Maybe it is made to order.
Great post!
I've never tried it, my son loves it but I haven't been brave enought to try it yet.
Sue - Thanks! I actually got it sitting in a take out bag as we "speak"...I got it without the tofu this time. I'll let you know how it is. Let me know if you ever decide to try it.
