Double Treasures Fish Maw Soup (Chinese New Year Recipe)

#fishmawsoup #Chinesenewyear
Chinese New Year is a time to celebrate the beginning of a new lunar new year. Truth be told, it is the food that gets me excited! I especially look forward to the yearly reunion dinner where family members would all gather on New Year’s Eve and enjoy a sumptuous feast. Symbolic ingredients like abalone, fish, chicken, noodles will always make their appearance on the dining table. Whatever you decide to cook, Chinese New Year is a time to show generosity, abundance and indulgence during this period, so be sure to prepare plentiful.
This Double Treasures Fish Maw Soup is one CNY dish you’ll find in most Chinese restaurants. It is super nutritious and decadent. The best part is, you do not need to spend hours boiling this soup. The actual cooking time for this soup is 15 minutes, or less. Preparing the ingredients do take some time but it’s mainly the waiting time required to soften the dried seafood.
Ingredients:
1 large piece dried fish maw (approx. 80g) - soak in hot water until softened (approx. 2 to 3 hrs)
100g crab claw meat
4 large pieces dried mushroom - soak in hot water until softened
2 to 3 large pieces dried scallop - soak in water until softened
