How To Make hot and sour ramen soup

  • 1
    First in a crock pot and in my case, my instapot; saute cabbage, green onion, and mushrooms. I used a pack of sliced crimini and other Asian mushrooms I bought from Wegmans.
  • 2
    Simmer the broth, mushrooms, liquid aminos or soy sauce, vinegar, sriracha sauce and white pepper over medium heat for 5 minutes.
  • 3
    In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch and cold water together to make a slurry. Stir it into the soup and simmer for 5 minutes or until the soup starts to thicken.
  • 4
    Lightly beat the eggs in a small bowl. Pour them into the soup while gently stirring to create the egg "ribbons". Add the tofu and green onions, stir and remove from heat.
