Hot Spicy Soup image

This soup is like the hot and tangy Tom Yum soup served in Thai restaurants. If your grocer doesn't carry lemongrass, use 1/2 tsp finely grated lemon rind. Make ahead and let cool for 30 minutes. Refrigerate until cold. Transfer to airtight container and refrigerate up to 2 days.
