Ingredients:

• 4 shiitake mushrooms, thinly sliced
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/2 head Napa cabbage, shredded
• 1 cup water
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Directions:

1. Saute Mushrooms and Garlic:

   • In a large pot, heat some oil over medium heat.
   • Add sliced shiitake mushrooms and minced garlic to the pot.
   • Saute for about 4 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and fragrant, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

2. Add Broth and Seasonings:

   • Pour in the chicken broth, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and crushed red pepper flakes into the pot with the mushrooms and garlic.
   • Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
   • Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat.

3. Incorporate Chicken and Cabbage:

   • Once the broth mixture is boiling, add in the shredded Napa cabbage and any cooked chicken you’re using.
   • Reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer, uncovered, for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

4. Thicken the Soup:

   • In a small bowl, combine the cold water and cornstarch, stirring until the cornstarch is fully dissolved.
   • Slowly pour the cornstarch mixture into the simmering soup, stirring continuously.
   • Let the soup simmer for an additional 2 minutes or until it reaches your desired thickness.

5. Finish with Sesame Oil:

   • Remove the pot from the heat.
   • Stir in the sesame oil, ensuring it’s evenly distributed throughout the soup.

6. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Ladle the hot and sour soup into bowls.
   • Garnish with some fresh cilantro or green onions if desired.
   • Serve piping hot and savor the spicy, tangy flavors!
