Gluten Free Hot and Sour Noodle Soup Recipe
This is a recipe inspired by hot and sour soup – something I always used to order way back when, in the days when I would eat at Chinese restaurants. It is so difficult to eat Chinese food out unless you know the restaurant can make your food gluten free.
I added bean noodles to this soup to make it more substantial and omitted the swirl of egg at the end, mainly because I can never seem to get that part right – my egg ends up gloopy instead of silky. But the noodles make up for it.
You can make this Gluten Free Hot and Sour Noodle Soup Recipe vegan by using vegetable stock. I used chicken stock, as that’s what I had on hand.
I love the addition of the bean noodles in this recipe; it makes it feel more like a noodle dish than a soup. I used Explore Cuisine’s Organic Adzuki Bean Spaghetti but their Organic Soybean or Black Bean Spaghetti would work equally well.
You can adjust the seasonings to make it more hot or more sour by adding a little more vinegar or sesame oil.
