Hot and Sour Soup (Potage Pékinois) - Chinese Soup with Chicken, Black Mushrooms and Bamboo Shoots

It’s a thick, exotic broth that warms you up on cold evenings and can make a full meal on its own. I also like to serve it as a starter for a Chinese dinner, with spring rolls on the side and chicken with black mushrooms and bamboo shoots.
