Soups, Sides, Veg & Salads

I admit… I actually do like the taste of shark’s fin soup, although I really do not care about having the actual fins in my soup. In fact, I’ve stopped consuming shark’s fin soup years ago. Each time it was served at a wedding or dinner celebration, I’d politely say no, thanks. Since CNY is just around the corner, I thought it’d be a great time to share with you this shark’s fin-free soup. I used Shark Fin Melon to substitute the actual fins. Definitely much cheaper, more nutritious, kinder to the sharks and the eco-system. This recipe is super simple and speedy to put together. I used Mizkan’s Yosenabe ready to use soup base to help me with this recipe. Yosenabe soup base is a light soup base with a combination of four stocks – bonito fish, kelp, scallop and chicken. It goes extremely well with seafood as it brings out the natural sweetness of the crab in this recipe. Mizkan’s products can be found at major supermarkets.
