Very nice! I am a big soup fan myself and anything that is simple and straightforward and delicious gets my number one vote. Love your soup photos too!
ReplyDeleteI always adore Chinese tonic soup for its comforting and nourishing qualities. I brothed Chinese Herbal Black Chicken Soup today and still feeling the overall well-being is boosted up hours after consuming it. :) Your photos look great!
ReplyDeleteI've just bought the ingredients to try this soup. But don't know why the dried longan I bought is the black type, not the beige colour in your photo. The soup is dark in colour :(
