Chinese Vegetable Soup is easy to make at home. In order to make a vegetable soup flavorful, I stir fry the vegetables first and get some char on them. Also, I add one teaspoon mushroom seasoning ("the secret seasoning") to enhance the flavor. Enjoy! Ingredients: 4 fresh or dry shiitake mushrooms, sliced 4 cups of Napa cabbage, sliced 1/2 onion, sliced 1/2 carrot, sliced 2 eggs, beaten 3 cloves garlic, sliced Salt White pepper Avocado or vegetable oil Sesame oil Mushroom seasoning

Hi everyone, welcome to Cook with Lin. Do you like soups? What's your favorite soup?
Today I'm going to share with you another vegetable soup and also I'm going to share
with you a secret seasoning how to make more tasty. Let me show you the ingredients.
We're going to use half of onion, medium onion. Onion is really going to add flavor
to the soup. Cut into slices like this and some carrot. It's just for color.
Two pieces should be enough. Turn around, cut into slices like this.
To the side.
And I have four shiitake mushrooms. They are fresh mushrooms like this.
They really give umami taste, flavor. Let's get rid of the end like that and cut into slices.
Some mushrooms and here's a napa cabbage. It's called the king napa cabbage. It's smaller,
it's like a miniature version of the big napa cabbage. You can just use
regular napa cabbage. Also add, cut into slices like this.
I'm also going to add two eggs. Eggs also give good flavor, right?
I always season the eggs with a little bit of salt and white pepper.
Now we're ready to cook. I'm heating up the pan to medium high heat. Let's add some oil.
Set aside. Now add a little bit more oil. Add garlic and onions. Now we add the
carrots and mushroom. So by stir frying them first, it's going to really give
more flavor to the soup. I'm going to heat up a little bit. Add a little bit of salt.
Cook about another minute. You can see our vegetables getting some color. Now it's time
to add water. About four cups. Turn heat to high. Let this boil. Now the soup is boiling.
Let's season it with some salt. Here comes the secret seasoning. Mushroom seasoning.
About a teaspoon. And turn heat to medium low. Let's cook about three minutes.
After three minutes, we're going to add the napa cabbage. Cook about three to five minutes
or to your own liking. After a few minutes, the vegetables are getting tender. Let's add the eggs
back. I will finish with some green onions and sesame oil. Also add some white pepper.
Our vegetable soup is ready. Wow, such healthy soup. Isn't it? Beautiful color too.
Ready for the soup? I'm ready. Cheers. Cheers.
Thanks to the secret seasoning, the mushroom seasoning, just a little bit goes a long way.
