Everything In Soup



Are you wondering why I named this soup Everything In? For pure simple reason because we needed to go away for a 4 days vacation to South Dakota and I needed to clear my fridge. I had some tofu leftover, half open canned of button mushroom, some leftover baked chicken breast and a packet of Enoki mushroom that won't keep long in the refrigerator, so I just dumped everything in a pot of chicken stock. I added a canned of corns, a bundle of "Tang Hoon" (vermicelli) and 2 beaten eggs. I also thicken the soup with potato starch and tada, a bowl of yummy and feeling soup to last us for a day. So good for cold weather too!


Closer look of my ingredients.

I made similar soup before which was named Golden Prosperity Soup by a reader. I made that for Chinese New Year.

  3. That's great Pearl, here is getting warm.

    Hi Ange, I added quite a lot of seasonings. Haha... I added Maggi seasonings, salt, sugar, soy sauce, Chinese black vinegar, white pepper and chicken stock granules (instead of making my own chicken stock or use store bought chicken stock). If you use store-bought chicken stock, it should come seasoned, like Swanson chicken broth. Enjoy!
