Morning all.
Since I did Asian jerky. I thought soup with an Asian flair is the ticket.
For the meatballs.
One egg
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1 clove garlic
1/2 tsp fresh ginger minced
1 TBS soy sauce
1 tsp roasted sesame oil
1 pound ground sausage. I used bulk country style.
Mix and form into small balls.
Put on a greased foil lined cooking sheet or pan.
Place in a 400 preheated oven for 15 minutes. IT should be around 150.

For the soup.

1 TBS vegetable oil
1 TBS roasted sesame oil
Stupid amount of mushrooms. I used portabella, straw, cremini, king oyster, and shakti.
2 tsp ginger minced
4 quarts chicken broth
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
2 TBS Chili Garlic Sauce
7 baby bok choy. Root removed. Roughly chopped and rinsed.
Bibigo Mini Wontons. Love this brand. Used 1/2 the bag.
Green onions

Heat vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add sesame oil and mushrooms and saute for 5-7 minutes. Add ginger and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add broth, soy sauce and chili garlic sauce. Bring to a boil over high heat, them reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
Add frozen wontons. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Add chopped bok choy. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Add green onions.
Adjust taste with more vinegar and/or soy sauce if you wish.
Bowl and enjoy!

My goodness . I'd be all over that . Supposed to be nasty on Sunday , this might be the ticket .
Really nice Steve .
 
Fantastic soup Steve, thanks for the how to do. :emoji_thumbsup: :emoji_yum:

I love Asian soups, Really love a big bowl of Hot and Sour, when we go out for a big feed I always start with a big bowl.

Once in Chinatown in Victoria BC, my buddy that lives out there took me to a little shop.
And he ordered a pot of if I remember right " War Soup " We it was about 5 big bowls worth .
None of the places around here sell it and they don't know what I am asking for .

I will have to try your recipe this winter , when it gets even colder then this week end lol

That's it Jeff, I was thinking war as in battle, and maybe the shops around here know it by the other name.

Great article and I printed off the recipe. Thank You

I don't remember the shrimp but I could have just passed them of to my buddy

Thank's again

Looks awesome Steve! Yes, an old thread but it's a good soup day... my wife made her first egg drop soup this morning since she had a craving. It gave me a craving for hot and sour soup, which brought me here! :emoji_blush:
How much snow did you get? Saw the one town in New York got 67 inches!

Lol! I'm making hot and sour soup today! That's a coincidence! So far. We've been lucky. Had two storms over the last couple of weeks that put down about 10"each. And had temps in the teens for 8 days straight with winds in the 30-35 mph. Started to warm up into the upper 20's to 30 degrees so it melted some. I really should get out there and blow out the driveway. No way was I going to do that with the weather we had been getting!

That's too funny! Soup making sounds way more fun than moving snow!
