  Prepare ingredients

  Clean the chicken leg mushrooms and oyster mushrooms, then soak them in diluted salt water for 10 minutes, and rinse again with clean water. Tear the oyster mushrooms into strips and dice the chicken leg mushrooms finely.

  If you are using corn on the cob, peel the husks, shave the kernels, then put the corn kernels into the blender to puree, or if you prefer to have whole kernels in your soup, just keep the kernels intact.

  The vegetables used for making the broth include carrots, kohlrabi, radish, shiitake mushrooms, dried straw mushrooms, loofah, and cassava. Peel, wash, and drain them.

  Cook the broth

  You boil 1.5 liters of water and then add all the vegetables to cook the broth in a pot, reduce the heat and simmer for 90 minutes, then strain the liquid to make the soup.

  Note: If you do not use all the broth, you can wait for it to cool, then place it in small containers, seal tightly, and store it in the refrigerator, when needed, you just take it out to thaw, very convenient.

  Cook the corn soup

  You take 50g of tapioca flour and dissolve it in 50ml of cold water. Boil the broth again and then reduce the heat, then slowly add the dissolved tapioca flour while stirring to completely dissolve the flour.

  Next, you add shredded oyster mushrooms and chopped chicken thigh mushrooms into the pot of broth, season with 1 tablespoon of vegetarian seasoning and cook for about 2 minutes.

  You continue to add corn to the pot, stir well, and boil for another 3 – 4 minutes before turning off the heat.

  Note:

  When adding tapioca flour, you need to reduce the heat so that the water is simmering, this way the flour won’t clump.

  Since the corn has its characteristic sweetness, you do not need to add sugar, however, if you prefer it sweeter, you can add 2 teaspoons of sugar to the pot of soup.
