I love this soup. I've made it several times to use up leftover turkey or chicken. I've substituted vegetables I have on hand like celery and frozen peas and it's just as good. I also leave out the sugar, because I like the tanginess of the vinegar. Thanks for posting this.

Fast, easy, yummy soup. added some sesame and chili oil to taste.

One of my all time favorites is hot and sour soup from China Joe's. This is even better! And it doesn't take much more time than ordering out! Thank you, Dorothy.

Good, but I didn't really taste the sweet and sour. I had to add more soy sauce for more depth of flavor. I'll make it again, adding more soy sauce, sugar, and vinegar. I also added water chestnuts.

Good soup! Like others, I subbed veggies, including waterchestnuts, which gave it a nice crunch. I also used only a pinch of sugar. I think you could easily double the vinegar, if you like a more sour hot and sour soup.
