- 1 tsp. sugar (optional)
- 2 Tbs. corn or peanut oil
- 2 Tbs. grated fresh ginger

Instructions
- <b>Make the soup seasoning</b>
- In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, chili paste, cornstarch and sugar. Stir to dissolve the cornstarch and sugar.
- <b>Cook the soup</b>
- Warm a large, heavy saucepan over high heat until hot and pour in the corn oil. Add the ginger and all but 1 Tbs. of the green onions and saut&#233; until fragrant, about 5 seconds. Add the pork and mushrooms and saut&#233; until the pork is just opaque, about 1 minute. Add the broth and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low.
- Give the soup seasoning a quick stir, add to the soup, stir well and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the soup begins to thicken slightly, about 5 minutes. Ladle the soup into warmed bowls, garnish with the reserved 1 Tbs. green onions and serve immediately. Serves 4.
