I love good hot and sour soup!! I've looked and looked for a good recipe, and found this on a website. I tried it, tweaked it just a little, and fell in love with it!! It's so yummy, and incredibly easy to make. It tastes like it came from the neighborhood Chinese restaurant. If you don't like things spicy, cut back on the chili sauce just a little. I hope you like it!! Please let me know what you think!
