I don't just enjoy soup on a cold winter's day, I enjoyed it yesterday even though it was 111 degrees. This simple soup, a staple in Filipino kitchens is absolutely delicious. Once again, I stumbled upon this recipe on You Tube and watched practically every video. The key ingredient is Knorr tamarind soup mix which gives it the name "sour soup". A variety of different vegetables can be used but onions and tomatoes are essential. I made mine with daikon radish, green beans and bok choy. I sauteed onions and ginger in oil then added tomatoes and baby back spareribs and let them brown a little. After 20 minutes or so, I added 14 cups of water and the tamarind packet, and let this simmer for about an hour. I then added the daikon radish and green beans and cooked for about 30 minutes until they were tender. Right before serving I added the bok choy and ladled the soup over rice.
