- Use a cleaver to chop strips into shreds.
- Combine marinade ingredients in a small bowl.

- Let stand 15 minutes.
- Combine chicken broth and salt in a medium saucepan.
- Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium.
- Add mushrooms, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, wood ears and lily buds to broth.
- Simmer 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add pork shreds with marinade and bean curd.
- Bring to a boil.
- Add worcestershire sauce and vinegar, if desired.
- I did not think the worchestershire belonged so I used soy sauce..
- Dissolve cornstarch in 5 tablespoons water to make a paste.
- Slowly stir into soup.
- Cook over medium heat until soup thickens slightly.
- Stir egg into soup.
