I just made something very similar 3 weeks ago! I have 2 recommendations:

if you have a pressure cooker, make the chicken broth yourself with either chicken bones or chicken feet. The protein-rich broth will make the soup richer, and you might be able to use less starch.
instead of white vinegar, try to find chinkiang vinegar at an Asian market. It's a dark Chinese vinegar with a distinctive flavor

Yeah I have chinese vinegar. A while back I made it both ways and I couldnt tell a difference which is why these days I just use white vinegar since its cheaper and so I can save the chinese vinegar for more important things like dumplings :D

Ah yeah, I'd you can't tell the difference then I agree, save it for other dishes. It is pricier than white vinegar
