EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Tofu is a mild and smooth custardlike mixture made from pureed soybeans. It's low in calories, cholesterol free and considered to be a good and inexpensive source of vegetable protein.

A cup of sliced regular white mushrooms, about 3 ounces, can be substituted for the dried black mushrooms.

If you're not ready to try tofu, then just use 2 cans (15 to 16 ounces each) great northern beans, rinsed and drained, instead of it.

Almost forgot you might want to use or try chinese hot chili oil instead of the pepper sauce. Both are good but the oil is more authentic and both have different tastes and textures.

Actually its very good. To answer Grape Apes question yes its missing 2 things. Cooking Dude is correct it should have pork strips added at the end (very last step) before serving. Its actually Chinese BBQ Pork you can find a easy and tasty recipe using pork tenderloin at about.com chinesefood. The second thing is to add a beaten egg at the end and swirl it into the broth. On the second try I added the 2 traditional items and would give it 5 stars.
