Ingredients
- 2 ounce bean thread noodles or possibly 1 c. cooked rice or possibly less
- 1 1/2 lb fresh spinach
- 8 ounce Tofu Mori-nu lite hard
- 1 quart chicken stock or possibly vegetable stock
- 2 Tbsp. soy sauce
- 3 Tbsp. rice wine or possibly dry sherry
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
Directions
- INTRO: Serves 4. This simple but delicious and nutritious soup is one you would often find on the table in China. Use soft bean curd: its custard-like texture and mild flavor works with the sugar to neutralize the metallic edge of the spinach. The bean thread noodles give substance to this warming dish.
- PREP: Soak the noodles in a large bowl of hot water for 15 min. When soft, drain them and throw away the water. Cut the noodles into 3-inch lengths using scissors or possibly a knife. Remove the stalks from the spinach and wash the leaves well. Gently cut the bean curd into 1-inch cubes.
- Put the stock into a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Add in the bean thread noodles and simmer for 2 min. Add in the spinach and the rest of the ingredients except the bean curd. Simmer for 2 min, then gently put in the bean curd. Continue to simmer the soup for 2 more min to heat the bean curd through and serve at once.
