Sour Vegetable Fish

This Sour and Spicy Bass Soup is a vibrant, family-sized dish bursting with bold flavors and tender fish slices. Perfectly marinated bass—infused with Shaoxing wine and Du Zhong wine—melts in your mouth, while the tangy sour vegetable package, spicy pickled peppers, and chili sauce create a rich, aromatic broth. Stir-fried ginger and onions add depth, while fresh bean sprouts, young bamboo shoots, and golden mushrooms bring a delightful crunch. The secret? Slicing the bass thinly for a silky texture and simmering it just until perfectly white. Easy to prepare yet impressive, this hearty soup is a satisfying meal for four, balancing heat, sourness, and umami in every spoonful. Dive into this comforting, restaurant-worthy dish at home!
