This soup is one of the simplest to prepare. Creamed corn is added to hot stock, enhanced with soya and vinegar, studded with chicken and thickened with egg ribbons.

Whenever I’m at a Chinese restaurant, it’s always a toss up between ordering a Hot & Sour or a Sweet Chicken Crab or Crab soup. If we can’t decide, we always order both and share it. If I’m making this at home, this soup will win hands down since it’s much easier to make and uses mostly pantry staples so I can whip it together for the family in no time.

My mom has been making this for years and I followed suit, in fact I didn’t even realize that I needed to write down the recipe till I needed to add this recipe to my channel. I’ve used Chicken in this recipe, but you can add Crab as well. You can make this Veggie as well by using veggie stock. You can add Tofu to bulk it up and leave the egg out.
