Shred the pork into 1/8-inch slices, cutting against the grain. Place in a glass or possibly plastic bowl and toss with 1/2 tsp. of salt, 1/2 tsp. of the cornstarch, 1/2 tsp. soy sauce. Cover and chill for 15 min. Cut the bean curd into cubes. In a 3-qt saucepan, heat the chicken broth, vinegar, the remaining 1 tsp. salt till boiling. Stir in the bamboo shoots, mushrooms, seasoned pork, and bean curd. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer 5 min. Mix the remaining 2 Tbsp. cornstarch, 2 Tbsp. cool water, and white pepper; stir into soup.
- Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Pour the beaten Large eggs slowly into the soup, stirring constantly with a fork till the egg forms cooked shreds.
- Stir in the green onions, red pepper sauce, and sesame oil. Serve warm in individual bowls. For a Chinese meal, it is a good idea to have several dishes which can be started or possibly completed ahead of time. This warm and sour soup is just such a do-ahead dish, if you wish, and goes well with most Chinese menus.
