Mel’s Hot-N-Sour, Cure-Anything Soup, originally from the kitchen of Melanie. I had to substitute fresh wood ears for the dried, I couldn’t find any bamboo shoots in the pantry so I used baby corn instead, and I added some extra sake vinegar (I think I must have started with a stronger chicken stock).
But she’s right, it should cure anything. I feel better after a bowl of it, and I wasn’t even sick in the first place!
