Keto Hot And Sour Soup
Keto Hot And Sour Soup is a tasty low-carb version of my favorite Asian-inspired soup.
Hot and sour is the soup I would always order at an Asian restaurant before discovering that I could not have gluten.
Fortunately, I found a way to make hot and sour soup gluten-free and low carb without sacrificing the lightly spicy and sour taste.
Ingredients
- 12 ounces (1 package) Organic Extra-Firm Tofu, chopped into ½-inches cubes
- 1 tablespoon Avocado Oil or Coconut Oil
- ½ teaspoon Chili Oil, plus extra for garnish
- 8 ounces Raw Shiitake Mushrooms, sliced
- ½ cup thinly sliced Scallions
- 1½ tablespoons minced Ginger Root
- 2 Garlic Cloves, finely minced
- 8 cups Chicken Broth, warm or Vegetable Broth
- ½ teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes, more or less to taste
- ¼ cup Rice Vinegar
- ¼ cup Tamari Sauce
- 2 Eggs, lightly beaten
- ½ teaspoon ground Black Pepper
Instructions
- To a large pot or wok over medium heat, add the avocado oil, chili oil, mushrooms, tofu cubes, scallions, ginger, and garlic.
- Salute for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon.
- Add the warm chicken or veggie broth, vinegar, tamari sauce, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender.
- Whisk the soup in one direction in a circular motion. Drizzle the eggs in a thin, steady stream, while you continue whisking the soup, this process will create egg ribbons.
