Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a pot, bring 4 cups chicken broth and 4 ginseng slices to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium-low and simmer until fragrant, about 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Add 1 cup shredded chicken and 1 soaked white fungus (torn into bite-size pieces). Simmer until the fungus is tender and the soup is aromatic, about 5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add 4 whole abalone and 0.5 teaspoon salt. Cook just until heated through, about 2 minutes, so the abalone stays tender.

  4. Step 4

    Ladle into bowls and serve hot, with extra salt to taste if needed.
