It is made using commercially available Tom Yum Kung soup paste. It’s easy and can be cooked in a very short time, and the classic Thai soup is ready to eat! The ingredients are simple, just shrimp and mushrooms. It’s pretty spicy at first, but if you dip some white rice in it, you can enjoy the deep and complex spice flavor of the lemongrass and seafood paste!
Tom Yum Kung soup is one of the world’s top three soups.
The green curry I made last week was delicious, so this time I made Tom Yum Kung soup in the Hot Cook.
If you like ethnic food and spicy food, this is a delicious dish that I highly recommend.
My wife lived in Thailand for five years when she was in elementary school, so she gets excited when Thai food appears on the table.
Tom Yum Kung soup is quite spicy, but I was told that if you add white rice to the soup, the spiciness will soften a little, and you can enjoy the taste of the spices used in the soup more.
Please give it a try!
