I love really good, authentic Chinese food- don’t you? As with all restaurants that aren’t committed to serving halal dishes, if you dine at one you’ll have to ask a zillion questions about the ingredients to find out if there are any questionable or clearly non-halal ingredients. If you only eat dhabiha<\/em> (slaughtered according to Islamic requirements) meats<\/a> and their by-products, chicken or meat broth in foods may pose an issue for you, too. That’s why I love to learn to make my own globally-inspired recipes and share them here.<\/p>\n

Another important addition is the broth.<\/p>\n

\"Saffron<\/p>\n

I don’t recommend skipping the broth because I feel it needs some depth to it. You could try a vegetable broth<\/a>, too, but chicken broth really works best in my opinion because it contains that healthy fat that gives the soup a silky taste. Use the halal-certified<\/strong> low sodium<\/strong> broths by Saffron Road<\/a> and you’ve got a totally halal version<\/strong> of this restaurant-style<\/strong> soup. <\/p>\n

  5. 1\/2 teaspoon white pepper<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  6. 1 tablespoon cornstarch +1 tablespoon warm water<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  7. 8 ounces soft tofu<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  8. 1 tablespoon rice vinegar<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  9. \u00bd cup chopped scallions<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  10. 1 teaspoon red chili flakes<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  11. 3 eggs, whisked<\/li>\t\t\t\t
  12. Soy sauce<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t
    \t\t\t
    Instructions<\/div>\t\t\t
      \t\t\t\t
    1. In a medium size sauce pan, bring the broth to a boil. While that's warming up, mix the ginger, salt, sugar and pepper. Dissolve the cornstarch in warm water.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    2. Add the ginger mixture to the broth. Pour in the cornstarch and whisk vigorously to completely dissolve. Reduce heat to medium high.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    3. Add the tofu, chili, vinegar and scallions and red chili flakes.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    4. Pour the whisked eggs directly into the pan while beating vigorously with a fork at the same time.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    5. Simmer for about five minutes.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    6. Serve hot, topped with fresh ginger, scallions and soy sauce on the side, A nice hot pot of green tea for drinking, if desired, too.<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t
      \t\t\t
      Notes<\/div>\t\t\t
        \t\t\t\t
      1. If you're concerned about the ingredients in soy sauce, use a halal-certified variety (such as La Choy) instead of the naturally fermented variety since the fermentation leaves alcohol residue.<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>
