: : Peanut Soup : :
A bit more about this peanut soup. I’m a Chinese so we cook it with pork. However, I think it should be okay with chicken.
It’s a common soup made at home and very easy to do. However, might take some time to do it because the peanuts need to be soft. Not too soft that it disintegrate but still soft enough to bite through without the crunchy sound.
Most homemade Chinese soup are clear i.e. no cornflour added inside. So, it’s a very light soup and not too heavy. This peanut soup is very good for one’s health although I have to check with Granny what it’s good for. Sometimes, instead of peanut, she puts in red kidney beans. The taste is slightly different but still good.
A typical Chinese meal at home will have soup. I know my Dad needs it! Throughout the coming days, I will start putting up other types of soup. Nowadays, these soups can be eaten at the foodcourt which sells different types of clear soup like pork stomach with pepper, chicken soup with carrots, bittergourd stuff with meat soup and others.
Still, the best soups I’ve tasted so far is always at home!
