[Martin]

[PepePeru]

Since you cannot disprove solipsism, you and your question are part of a construct that is my perception, so the number is whatever I choose it to be.

Damn you!

edit: HAH! I am more powerful than you are sir DM! I have timewarped before you, and hence knew you were going to say that!

Anyone have a good recipe for making hot & sour soup at home? It seems to be pretty much the same soup at any Chinese restaurant I go to around here.

Actually, I do have another one. What the hell are the "crispy noodle" for? I'm thinking the soup? But if I put them in the soup, they'd no longer be crispy, would they?

You only put enough in, so that you can eat them before they get all soggy. Like putting crackers into soup/chowder.

Oh. Interesting. I always eat them separately, like snack chips or something.

The Hot Sour soup I get has a lot of unknown (at least to me) ingredients but tofu was something identifiable due to the unnatural shape.

 

[Lorax]

tofu, bamboo, wood ear (the black kinda crunchy thing), egg, sometimes shrimp or pork.

i thought the "black substance" was shitake mushroom.

there was this chinese rest. across the street from a former office, i was one of the few employees to go eat lunch there. the owner lady gave me free hot & sour soup one day and i was hooked. she gave me free soup every time i went in there. i swore she said it was shitakes, maybe that was just her thing, i don't know, anyways. The soup was amazingly good. I've yet to find any place that does it better than she did. I miss it!

It's the one thing that tofu is good in.

I love H&S soup and have looked up recipes to try to make it dozens of times. It doesn't look very hard and certainly requires no special skills, but it does require a bunch of ingredients that you don't find in the typical supermarket.

"Ranch 99" or a similar market will have what you need for H & S.

 

[Feanor727]

Or you could just go to Costco and get 2 deliciously pre-made quarts for $7.99

I eat the crispy noodles (basically chinese dough - the same stuff they make fried wontons and the dumplings in wonton soup - as well as the outside of an egg roll) - by putting them IN the soup. It makes the crispy noodles a tiny bit softer, but it takes a while as the crispy noodles are very crispy.

If my hot and sour soup did not have tofu I would be very pissed.
