Trivia

[Hardcore] Representative Indian Chinese soup where Indians refreshingly demonically modified Chinese 'Hot and Sour Soup (Suanla Tang)' using cilantro/lemon. Near zero oil; combining cilantro's powerful chelating action (toxin excretion effect) and lemon's citric acid, boasts immense popularity among urban Indian women as 'drinkable beauty serum'. A dish teaching that discarding 'cilantro roots' in soup cooking is the most foolish act.

Eating tips & etiquette

[Unique Eating] When feeling cold or morning stomach-heavy, dump extra 'grated ginger' into this soup, forcibly executing internal detox via intense diaphoresis!
