Hobby HorsemanCalifornia Farm Hot and Sour Silken Egg Tofu Soup
My favorite Chinese Restaurant in San Francisco gave me this soup recipe a long time ago, verbally, this is how I have been making hot and sour soup since. I substituted silken egg tofu for firm tofu and chicken livers for chicken meat. The silken egg tofu makes the soup even smoother. If you like less spicy, cut the mala chili paste in half.
