| 1. Soak the mushrooms in 1/3 cup boiling water for 15 minutes. With a slotted spoon, lift the mushrooms from the liquid and set aside. Strain the liquid through a coffee filter-lined strainer to remove the grit and set aside. Discard the tough stems from the mushrooms. Squeeze the mushrooms dry. Cut into thin slices. | 2. Pour the mushroom liquid and chicken stock into a large stockpot set over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and meat. Bring the mixture to a simmer and add the tofu, vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil and chili sauce. Taste the soup and adjust the seasonings to taste. | 3. Stir the cornstarch mixture and add it to the simmering soup. Cook for 2 minutes to thicken the soup. Drizzle in the egg while the soup is at a simmer, stirring gently. | 4. Do not boil. | 5. Serve hot, garnished with green onions. | 6. The soup can be made up to the cornstarch addition up to 1 day ahead, covered and refrigerated. To finish the soup, reheat over medium-high heat and once it reaches a simmer, resume the recipe. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
