This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add more spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of hot and sour soup, but this recipe was actually really good! It had a nice balance of flavors and wasn't too spicy. I would definitely make it again.

This soup was just okay. It wasn't as flavorful as I expected. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This soup was easy to make and packed with flavor. I used a store-bought chicken broth and it still turned out delicious. I will definitely be making this again!
