Tomato, Carrot, Corn and Fresh Abalone Soup

Why people make this soup

Fresh small abalone are available at fishmongers and Asian seafood counters. Abalone is prized in Chinese food therapy for its rich mineral content — calcium, iron, phosphorus and vitamins A and B — and for providing protein that is considered relatively easy for the body to absorb. Combined with tomato, carrot and corn (all containing lycopene, lutein and provitamin A), this bright, sweet-tasting soup is traditionally enjoyed to help protect the eyes from environmental stressors and to support skin that looks clear and even-toned.
