After I posted my blog on soup last week I got this message from Bonnie Jundzillo Wohlford. She is the daughter of my cousin Jean Jundzillo who contributed many recipes to the new cookbook. Bonnie had this to say about my latest recipe:
I made the PA dutch hot and sour soup last night...I have to say it was SOOOOO good... I had my doubts when I was putting it together...lol but after it all came together I couldn't believe the flavor it had!! My husband ate two bowls of it... and he usually only does one! He gave it a 3 and half star out of 4! I'm giving it a 4...it was perfect! Thanks for sharing....
So, because Bonnie gave the soup such a good review, I'm posting the recipe again.....

I love Hot and Sour Soup but I don't really like tofu or bamboo shoots, I often pick them out of Chinese Hot and Sour Soup. So last night I decided to make a Hot and Sour Soup of my own. I call this Pennsylvania Dutch Hot and Sour Soup because it involves a few things that are standard in PA Dutch cooking --- cabbage, vinegar, pork and onions. So here's what I did:
Pennsylvania Dutch Hot and Sour Soup
- In my big Dutch oven I browned a pound of ground pork, breaking it up into fine pieces as it browned and draining out the fat as it formed.
- Cut a pound of boneless, skinless chicken thighs into small pieces and added them to the pork with 2 medium onions sliced in half lengthwise and then sliced fine. Let this cook until the chicken is becoming opaque.
- Take a head of cabbage and slice it in half. With a large, sharp knife cut fine slices of cabbage like you would for sauerkraut. Add 2-3 handfuls to the pot and stir cooking until the cabbage begins to be translucent. Add 12 oz. of sliced brown (Crimini) mushrooms.
- When the cabbage looks nearly done add two cans or one box of chicken broth and lots of pepper (about 1 tbsp.) Bring to a boil and add ¼ c. cider vinegar and 2 tsp salt.
- Mix 2 tbsp corn starch with ¼ c. water and pour carefully into the broth, cook to thicken. Beat 2 eggs with 2 tbsp cold water. When broth is thick and bubbling, drizzle the egg into it moving the mixture back and forth over the surface of the stew as you pour.
- Turn off heat and let sit 5 mins. for eggs to set.
When I ladled it into the bowl I floated a little bit of dark sesame oil on the surface and added some chopped, fresh cilantro. It was so delicious --- very chicken-y and smooth. I actually wound up adding a couple shakes of Mongolian Fire Oil because it wasn't quite hot enough for my tastes but that's a personal thing.
There is a big bowl of it in the fridge and I am looking forward to lunch. I may add a bit more vinegar and I also have a package of frozen pea pods I've thought about putting in. But, anyway, this is a very nutritious soup with lots of veggies and not a lot of carbs.
