  • 3 dried shiitake mushrooms, soaked in hot water to soften ounce
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 egg
  • 6 cups defatted chicken broth or vegetable broth
  • 1 10oz package spinach, stems removed, washed and drained (or substitute frozen leaf spinach, thawed and drained)
  • 1 7.25 oz package udon noodles, cooked, or ½ pound spaghetti, cooked and drained

  3. Season the soup with soy, vinegar, and Tabasco. Add the tofu and pepper and stir just to heat through.
  4. Scramble the egg whites and egg together and while the soup is simmering, stir it with a fork in one hand and gradually pour the egg mixture into the soup in a stream, scrambling constantly.
  5. Serve the soup immediately. Serves 8.
