Keep the pot at medium heat until it is boiling, then slowly pour in the cornstarch slurry while stirring to mix evenly. Stop pouring the slurry once the soup in the pot becomes slightly thickened.

Add a spoon of ground pepper, a spoon of light soy sauce, a spoon of vinegar, half a spoon of dark soy sauce, and a spoon of salt and mix well (dark soy sauce can give the hot and sour soup color and enhance the salty taste, so you need to control the amount of salt after adding dark soy sauce).

The beaten eggs are slowly poured into the pan while using a ladle to stir, allowing the eggs to form beautiful egg flowers.
