Fresh Abalone, Dried Scallop, Goji Berry, and Chicken Breast Soup

Why people make this soup

Around the Lunar New Year, families gather for a rich reunion dinner, and a nourishing pot of soup is always at the centre of the table. This combination of fresh baby abalone, dried scallop, goji berries, and free-range chicken has long been prized in Cantonese food-therapy for its deeply savoury flavour and its traditional associations with nourishing the liver and supporting eye health. Using the breast meat and carcass from a free-range chicken keeps the prep simple while delivering a beautiful, golden broth.
