Hot and Sour Soup
The secret to this delicious and tangy soup is all in the vinegar. We use apple cider, but it can be switched out for the more traditional option of rice wine vinegar.
Make this recipe your own by choosing your own protein/meat and adding more or less of the spicy/sour ingredients.
