Hot And Sour Soup With Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
• Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Cook mushrooms and garlic in oil until soft (do not brown). Stir in tomato, pineapple, celery and sugar and cook until tomatoes begin to soften. Stir in chicken broth and water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and stir in lime juice and soy sauce; simmer 5 minutes. Stir in shrimp and red pepper and simmer 3 minutes more, until shrimp are pink. Stir in bean sprouts, onion and reserved noodles. Heat through and serve.

Steps:

• Place mushrooms, lily buds and tree ears in hot water and allow to soak for 30 minutes. Drain, reserving the water.
• Discard the stems from the mushrooms and slice the caps. Cut away the hard ends of the lily buds and cut the tree ears in half.
• Bring stock to a simmer in a saucepan, add the soaking liquid, vinegar, soy sauce, mushrooms, lily buds and tree ears. Simmer for five minutes.
• Dissolve cornstarch in cold water and stir into the soup. Slice the tofu and add, along with the shrimp. When the soup returns to a simmer dribble in the egg slowly, stirring constantly. Season soup with hot chili oil to taste, dust with scallions and serve.

Steps:

• Wash the raw shrimp, then peel and devein, saving the peelings. Wash the shrimp again, drain and pat dry. Cover and refrigerate.
• Cut each lemongrass stick into 3 (2-inch) pieces, starting from the rounded bottom end; discard the straw-like top. Lightly crush the 6 pieces with a heavy pestle, a mallet, or the blade of a knife.
• Combine the lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, the stock, and shrimp peelings in a pan. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer very gently for 20 minutes. Strain this stock and return to the rinsed-out pan.
• Add the fish sauce, lime juice, and chile paste. Stir and taste again, adding more fish sauce or lime juice if required.
• Drain the straw mushrooms and add them to the seasoned stock. If using fresh mushrooms cut into quarters, drop into lightly salted boiling water, and boil for 1 minute. Drain and add to the seasoned stock. (The soup may be prepared to this stage several hours ahead if necessary and refrigerated.)
• Prepare the garnishes shortly before you are ready to serve the soup. Cut the green chilies into very fine rounds, and wash and dry the cilantro leaves.
• Just before serving, heat the stock with the mushrooms in it. When it begins to bubble, drop in the peeled shrimp. Cook over a medium heat for about 2 minutes or just until the shrimp turn opaque. Serve the soup immediately in individual bowls, garnished with the green chiles and cilantro leaves.

Steps:

• Soak the noodles in hot water to cover and let stand, about 30 minutes, until soft.
• Peel the shrimp, reserving the shells. Cut them in half lengthwise, then toss with 1/4 teaspoon salt and the sesame oil, and refrigerate.
• Bring the stock to a boil with galangal, garlic, and lemongrass. Turn the heat to low and simmer for 35 minutes. Add the shrimp shells and simmer for another 15 to 20 minutes, skimming if necessary. Strain the stock and bring to a boil. Turn heat to low and simmer with the shallots and chiles. Simmer for 15 minutes and add 2 teaspoons of salt, the fish sauce, and the sugar. Continue to simmer.
• Meanwhile, drain the noodles well and divide among four to eight bowls. Then add the shrimp to the simmering broth. Turn off the heat and stir in the fresh herbs and lime juice.
• Divide the soup among the soup bowls, sprinkle over the black pepper, and serve.

Steps:

• In a bowl combine shrimp, 2 tablespoons of the lime juice, 2 teaspoons of the fish sauce, 1 tablespoon of the green chilies, and 1 teaspoon of the finely-minced lemongrass. Mix well and let marinate while you prepare the soup.
• In a large saucepan heat oil over high heat. Add shrimp shells and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes, or until shells have begun to brown. Add chicken stock, 2 tablespoons of the green chilies, the 2 tablespoons sliced lemongrass, kefir lime leaves, coriander roots and stems, galanga root, shallots and tamarind pulp; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmering, cover and cook 30 minutes.
• Into a clean saucepan strain soup through a fine sieve, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible; discard solids. Heat over medium-high heat and add remaining 2 tablespoons lime juice. remaining 2 teaspoons fish sauce, remaining 1 tablespoon green chilies, remaining teaspoon minced lemongrass, straw mushrooms, coriander leaves, and scallions; stir well. To serve, add shrimp in their marinade and cook 30 seconds or until shrimp turn pink and are cooked through.

Steps:

• Combine first 4 ingredients in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes. Add juice, vinegar, pepper, shrimp, and tofu to pan; bring to a boil.
• Cook 2 minutes or until shrimp are almost done. Combine cornstarch and water in a small bowl, stirring until smooth. Add cornstarch mixture to pan; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly with a whisk. Slowly drizzle egg white into pan, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in chili oil, pepper and onions.

Steps:

• Trim the bottom of the lemon grass, and remove tough layers. Using a food processor or Japanese or French mandoline, slice the bottom 3 or 4 inches of the stalk tissue-thin.
• Bring the stock to a boil. Add lemon grass and sliced lime leaves, and boil one minute.
• Add the mushrooms, and simmer until mushrooms have softened, 2 or 3 minutes.
• Add the shrimp, chilies and fish sauce, and cook until shrimp are just done. (Do not overcook the shrimp.)
• Stir in the lime juice, tasting as you add. Serve, sprinkled with cilantro and the 4 whole lime leaves.

Steps:

• DIRECTIONS Remove the outer layer of the lemongrass stalks; cut off the end. Cut into 1-2 pieces and smash. Tear the center vein off the lime leaves. Slice galangal thinly. Cut the tomato into 6 pieces. Peel the shallots and smash lightly. Clean coriander roots well. Smash the fresh chilies. If using fresh Thai straw mushrooms, slice the bottoms off and cut in 1/2 lengthwise. If making the version with milk: roast the dried chilies until fragrant and browned in a dry wok on medium heat. Clean the shrimp by peeling off the backs and snapping off the top part of the heads, but leave the fat on at the base of the head (the reddish brown goop). This is very important, as that fat imparts a signature flavor into Tom Yum Goong. Remove the legs + intestine underneath; leave the tails on. Set aside. Boil the broth on high until it comes to a rapid boil. (see note about broth below). Add the lime leaves, lemongrass, coriander root, galangal, shallot(s) and tomato. Boil for 4-5 minutes until the broth tastes herbal. if you're using fresh ingredients, 4-5 minutes should be enough. In a separate pan, boil the mushrooms in plain water. After you've boiled 4-5 minutes, add a pinch of salt and the shrimp. Strain the cooked mushrooms and add them to the soup as well. Cook until shrimp turn pink, about a minute. Add the fish sauce and remove from heat. You will now season the soup. Add lime juice, chili paste, smashed fresh chilies. Taste the soup. Is it sour? Is it salty? If no, add a bit more, 1/4 teaspoon at a time. If making the version with milk: Add the milk and dried chilies. If doing this step you'll need to add a bit more lime juice and fish sauce as the milk tames it down a bit. Add about a teaspoon more of each. Add cilantro and serve. This soup is best served really hot!
