PF Chang’s Hot and Sour Soup
This recipe in no way should be credited to me. I found it off the internet years ago, and noticed this exact recipe wasn’t on RecipeZaar yet… so here it is. =) This is the closest tasting recipe I’ve found to the Hot and Sour Soup that is served at P.F. Chang’s. If you love that restaurant as much as I do, give this a shot. You won’t be disappointed! (This approximately yields the “bowl” size from the restaurant.)
