Recipe: Make Hot and Sour Soup just like at a Chinese restaurant

Hot and sour soup is a true culinary gift. The fragrance is tantalizing and the sweet and tart flavors balance deliciously, along with spicy heat. I usually have a bag of shelled and deveined shrimp in the freezer, so the alluring soup provides a great last-minute meal.
