Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes Soup Recipes Seafood Shrimp Soup Homemade Tom Yum Soup 4.9 (8) 5 Reviews 3 Photos Tom yum soup is easier to make at home than most hot and sour soup recipes you will find. I have simplified a sometimes complex recipe for those like me who have a hard time finding some of the original ingredients. This tastes better than any tom yum in the many restaurants I have been to!
