This light clear vegetable soup - Kaeng Cheud in Thai - is made with fresh vegetables, glass noodles and egg tofu. Egg tofu is a typical Asian product, made from water, eggs, and soy milk. At the Food Forest Kitchen Restaurant you will find this clear soup at the lunch buffet table. If you want to make this dish as a vegan dish, you can replace the egg tofu for silken tofu.
