Recipe Summary

Yield: Makes 1 quart

Ingredients

Ingredient Checklist

6 cups water

1/2 cup mixed dried mushrooms, such as porcini, shiitake, oyster, or wood ear

1 whole chicken breast (about 10 ounces)

1 carrot, roughly chopped

1 tablespoon roughly chopped jalapeno pepper

1 1/2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh ginger

3 garlic cloves, crushed

1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns

1 tablespoon sugar

1/2 cup firm tofu, cut into 1/4-inch dice

Juice of 1 lime (about 3 tablespoons)

1 1/2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh mint

1 1/2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh basil

1 1/2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh cilantro

1 teaspoon soy sauce

      Cook's Notes

For a heartier version, add cooked and drained soba or udon noodles, or serve brown rice on the side. This soup can be prepared through step 2 up to three days in advance; for best results, store the broth separately from all other items. Proceed with step 3 the day the soup will be served.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 6 cups water
  • 1/2 cup mixed dried mushrooms, such as porcini, shiitake, oyster, or wood ear
  • 1 whole chicken breast (about 10 ounces)
  • 1 carrot, roughly chopped
  • 1 tablespoon roughly chopped jalapeno pepper
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh ginger
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 cup firm tofu, cut into 1/4-inch dice
  • Juice of 1 lime (about 3 tablespoons)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh mint
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh basil
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce

Directions

Bring the water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat, and add mushrooms; let sit until softened, at least 30 minutes. Strain mushrooms through a cheesecloth-lined sieve to remove any sandy grit; discard mushrooms.

Return mushroom broth to a clean medium saucepan, and add chicken, carrot, jalapeno, ginger, garlic, and peppercorns. Bring just to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer over medium heat 20 minutes, or until broth is reduced to about 4 cups. Strain through a fine sieve back into saucepan, reserving broth and discarding everything but the chicken.

Remove chicken meat from the bones, and shred the meat. Return chicken meat to mushroom broth; add sugar, tofu, lime juice, herbs, and soy sauce, and stir to combine. Transfer soup to a covered container, and refrigerate until well chilled, at least 2 hours or overnight. Serve.

      Cook's Notes

For a heartier version, add cooked and drained soba or udon noodles, or serve brown rice on the side. This soup can be prepared through step 2 up to three days in advance; for best results, store the broth separately from all other items. Proceed with step 3 the day the soup will be served.
