This is and always has been my favorite soup. I am excited at the idea I can make it at home! 😊 Thanks as always for sharing your knowledge and now your stories!

Hi Mikey, thank you for sharing! I made this at home and it was a hit! Everyone loved it!! Usually at restaurants it's either hot, or either sour but not both. This recipe was the perfect blend of it and was super flavorful. I'm vegetarian and didn't have veggie stock, so I used Veggie Bouillon cubes and it came out great. Thanks a bunch! This will be my go to!

I had some leftover pork in my fridge and was wondering what to do with it- and now I know! I have all the ingredients. :-) I have made hot sour soup many times because I love it so much. I add a bit of julienne cut carrot to mine because I loved the hot sour soup made by the Vietnamese owner of a Chinese restaurant. Thanks for the tip on the flower buds. I knew to remove the hard tip on them, but I didn't know to pull them apart. I also like mine sour and would boost the sour with apple cider vinegar. I also put in a few shakes of red pepper flake. Great video!

John Doe love your in depth version! Definitely gonna try apple cider vinegar with it too!

Looove your cooking videos man! You're teaching me how to cook many of my favorite foods, and I am super grateful! Love your enthusiasm and expertise! Keep it up!

I just made this soup! It's so good! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe, Mikey!

Mike is just such a great guy. Corona has completely upset his world of travel, opening new restaurants, etc. But there's never a sigh, a woe-is-me about any of that. We got lemons? Let's make the greatest lemonade evah! A lot of us talk about trying to live our lives that way. Mike does it.

I am with you. I could easily have this every day for breakfast or for lunch. I’ve also made it with chicken instead of pork, depending on what I have on hand

Glad you shared this Mikey! 🥰🥰 I looove hot and sour soup. I tried your Dumpling recipe and it's amaaaaaazing 🔥❤️ I'm sure this will turn out so good! 🤩

Good morning from Missouri. I love, love, love your videos! I first saw you in the Dumpling Challenge video with The Try Guys. I have become borderline obsessed with Asian cooking. I made a trip to one of our local Asian markets and found frozen soup dumplings and served them along with egg fried rice. So delicious! I subscribe to three of your channels. And one of these days when we can make it to NY we will definitely visit your restaurant. Thank you for the video experience of visiting all of the places you have been and giving a taste of other cultures.

Love your videos Mike! Thanks for keeping us company during this lockdown! Stay safe 😀

My favourite restaurant is closed obviously, so thanks this is a Lifesaver!!

So happy to find your recipe. This is my all time favorite soup!!! Thank you💓

Tried this recipe and it turned out amazing. So delicious and just what I was craving. Thanks, Mikey!

I am vegetarian and often make this soup (without the meat) at home when I cook Chinese. I love topping it with fried onions or fried wonton strips. Thanks for sharing your version. It looks SO good!!

Good choice of background music. No elevator, no head bangin, no spinning disco balls - just smooth paced and relaxing. It makes the video much easier to enjoy - I can almost taste the soup!

My all time favorite soup! Been making it at home since I was a teen but I'm trying this recipe now!

OMG! My fav soup!! Thank you!!! Awesome video 👏👏👏

I am so excited about this recipe!!! Can’t wait to make it

My mom would occasionally make a Canadian version of this for company. Delicious! Even though it was tempered down, it packed some great flavor. It certainly warmed everybody up! It was so good after a cold day.

This is my all time favourite soup! Used to eat it every weekday lunch in HK, with a serving of dumplings on the side. It's not the same in Dublin....here the restaurants make it to suit local tastes. Going to make this tomorrow 😋

Made this last night with some substitutions, turned out amazing! Thanks for the awesome recipe!

Just made today!! Delicious!! I enjoy all your videos. I didn’t realize you had a cooking channel until you said it the other day on your other channel. Thank you!!

You are really pumping these videos out man! Over multiple channels, too. That's impressive

Man! If only I have all those ingredients, I'll make that in a heart beat! I remember the first time I had that when I was a kid, I never thought I'd love that soup 'til may aunt served me one. Life changing.

I love this soup but your personality makes it fun to watch. Thank you!

Classic ! One of my very favorites. Love, love black vinegar. The pork tenderloin strips and bunches of mushrooms are a must for me. Great recipe again!👏

Wow Mikey I tried this and it was one of the best soup I have ever had, so thank you for bringing this to my life

I just made some and it turned out delicious 😋. Thank you!

Awesome video, Awesome recipe! Thank you my man! Much Love from Florida

This is so awesome! Cannot wait to try it! Well done 👍👍

Lately I have been in a serious mood for hot and sour soup. This looks amazing!

I made this recipe and it came out very well, thank you.

I've always loved a good hot and sour soup. Any time I've had a cold it does the trick of making me feel better.

This looks so good!

Mikey! Really enjoying your recipes. I didn't know you grew up in a restaurant. Make more! Thanks, Karla

I love you Mikey! So good, can't wait to try it. Just have to make it back to Disneyland ( aka the Chinese grocery store) for those rad mushrooms. Your videos help me cook with flavors I love. Thanks for putting interesting content out for all. Peace and love homey.

Omg! I tried this tonight and it was AMAZING! I'm from Norwalk, California and I miss this soup so much. I am unfortunately allergic to soy/tofu so I subbed the soy sauce for coconut aminos and I left out the tofu. It was still amazing! Thank you so so much! 🥰😍🤩

Been waiting for this

love to try it thanks for sharing

😃 Thank you so much for this delicious recipe! 🙏🏻 You are awesome! 🌟

This soup looks so delicious and good!!!!! I wish I could reach through the screen and have some with ya!🤗😊 It looks so good to have every day even in hot summer here in Victoria Texas.

My favorite! Thanks a lot Mike!!💛💛💛💛

My fave soup & your recipe sounds the most like what I like. Must try!!

I can’t wait to make Mikey’s Chinese Hot & Sour Soup !!! It one of my absolute favorite things to have for breakfast !!! When I was pregnant and expecting twin boys, Chinese Hot & Sour Soup was one of few dishes I could not get enough of !!! It would chase away my morning sickness even !!! YUM-YUM-YUUUMMMM😋

Of all the recipes you've done this is the one I've most anticipated because it's something I would have as my last meal

The lillies and the bamboo are my favorite parts. So yummy.

Nubian Queen agreed! It’s sooo good! The tofu with it is amazing!

I actually just made a big pot last night. Some other ingredients that I use are: - Carrots ... thinly sliced julienne ... seems to be a common piece in other hot-sour recipes. - White button Mushrooms ... sliced ... more common in western grocery stores ... mix with or substitute for wood-ear and/or shiitake. - Wontons/Dumplings ... with pork/shrimp/etc ... if you have any leftovers ... another source of protein. - White vinegar mixed with some Worcestershire and/or balsamic ... if you don't have chinkiang black vinegar ... mix to taste. - Doubanjiang ... for added spiciness & red color ... common in other hot-sour recipes ... i will sometimes substitute Korean Gochujang, nearly similar. - Ground black pepper ... if you don't have white pepper or mix in a ratio with white pepper, as black pepper has a different profile, while white pepper has funkiness. - Any veggies you may want, although ones with a bit of neutral taste will work better, such as Bokchoy, Spinach, Napa cabbage & green cabbage ... julienned. - Coriander (cilantro ) ... depends if you are in the mood for the taste.

@@beli6664 ... No problem. Be careful with the balsamic/worcestershire, too much might overpower it. But I suggest you try to find black vinegar eventually. There might be an asian store near you. That way you get a taste reference in your mind what hot & sour soup should taste like with real chinese black vinegar. If nothing else, I just use straight white vinegar & then color it with some soysauce.

This guy is adorable. Love his enthusiasm.

I made this today. I've been wanting to make this for years. It came out delicious. I had to play with the spice and sour a bit until I got that right balance. Thank you for sharing. I wish I could post a photo. Lol

This recipe is AMAZING. I moved to a different state and could not find a good hot and sour soup but now I can just make my own. Thanks soo soo much!!!!

Stephanie Ulrich we do that too! Oysters grow so much you almost have to give them away. My friend now runs his own mushroom farm and makes mushroom tinctures. He’s supporting himself and his other half completely through this. We also get to have his delicious mushrooms dropped off when he has too much.

We give the rest to friends and family. We also like to grow lions main. I want to try growing mataki mushrooms as well. Love hearing from mushroom enthusiasts.

That is my favorite soup! Sooo good!

Hot and sour soup is great. Here in Australia, I've only ever had access to canned bamboo. It has a pleasant but very mild flavour. Mostly it is crunchy water, a lot like iceberg lettuce. Funky can cover a lot of savoury tastes that I generaly like. I hope I can try fresh bamboo sometime soon.

This is the style of hot & sour soup I have been looking for. I can't wait to make it.

My mouth waters when I saw how yummy the soup looked.... *drooling....*

Really nice looking soup. Thanks for the mostly traditional recipe.

Wow! That looks delicious!

Looks delicious😃 thanks for the recipe...

It is 90 degrees here today but i HAD to try this recipe. It is the best hot and sour soup i have ever had, and i get it at every restaurant i go to. Thank you!

This soup recipe is amazing

Yum! I watched your recipe to compare it to mine! Exactly mine ! Yummy, time to eat! I will be watching for more recipes from you!

Ooooooh jia always made the soup for me, when I got a cold 😍

My favorite thing to get at every Chinese restaurant it’s so good😍 will definitely be trying this recipe!

This is absolutely the best recipe ever!!

I just made this with the ingredients I had on hand (the fresh shiitake mushrooms were the reason I wanted to make it to begin with), I used homemade chicken stock and it came out SO good. I love it! Next time I'm going to make sure I have at least some bamboo shoots. The cans aren't expensive, I don't know why I don't always have some on hand.

Easy way to make a spice bag at home: take a paper coffee filter, put your items in the middle, tie up tight with butcher’s twine and then cut off the excess from the filter. This works with cheese cloth too. I’ve done both of these when making pickles with my mom as a kid :) Awesome recipe Mikey!! :)
