Hot and sour soup is a traditional Sichuan snack, belonging to Sichuan or Hunan cuisine. Sichuan hot and sour soup is characterized by sour, spicy, salty, fresh and fragrant. It is cooked with shredded pork, tofu, winter bamboo shoots, Baoning vinegar and other ingredients in clear soup. Drinking it after meals has the effect of sobering up, removing greasiness, and aiding digestion. Therefore, many people miss the delicious taste of hot and sour soup when they don’t have much appetite. Hot and sour soup also has the functions of strengthening the spleen and stomach, softening the liver and kidneys, and is suitable for assisting in the treatment of loss of appetite. On May 14, 2015, it became the menu of the state banquet hosted by Xi Jinping in Xi'an to entertain Indian Prime Minister Modi during his visit to China. It shows how delicious it is! Due to my family's eating habits, I have never had snacks such as hot and sour soup before. After drinking it for the second time, I feel more and more addicted. The soup I made is not an authentic Sichuan hot and sour soup. I just added chicken, mushrooms, etc. to the soup according to my preference, which enriches the taste and adds nutrition~`~
