I made this and it turned out pretty good, but I used vegetable broth to make this vegan. Note that even though it tastes excellent, there is very little fat in the recipe so I would not consider this a "meal in a bowl" recipe, but it does make a great appetizer. It's also pretty easy to make, you could throw this together early in the day and let it sit on low heat until dinner. Also the recipe makes a HUGE pot of soup, if you are only cooking for 1 or 2 people, you might consider halving or even quartering the recipe.
I remember my mother in law making this soup for us and it was one of my favorites. Now that she's passed, I really miss having it, but your recipe was spot on how I remember it tasting! Thanks for sharing it with us, it's delicious - I added pork bones for additional flavor and protein...love it!
I’m so glad for your video! Because of the corona I wanted to buy some food stock. But I want to but reasonable things. For what I keep rice or potato if there is no meat to buy Protein is still the most important: So I think very hardly and read a lot And find out that BEAN CURD SHEETS would be to winner from all food stuff! It contains 42 g /100g of protein!!! I bought it at home but I don’t have a clue how to cook it! So find your video I’m so glad and grateful. God bless you
THANK YOU aunty! Quick easy simple soup! Grew up with Cantonese dishes and soups, mum find it hard to teach me dishes and soups because she can't translate some of the ingredients. Subscribed! Keep the Cantonese dishes and soups coming!
Hi! I'm glad I found this recipe! :) Do the honey dates need to be soaked before adding to the broth? // And how much hot water did you use to soak the mushroom in? Thanks!
Dear Yu: I'd like to confirm how important it is to slow cook dried bean curd sticks (腐竹) for two hours. They are so hard and unpleasant to chew otherwise. By the way, do you have a recipe for cooking bean curd cakes (豆腐干)? Thank you. James Chan, Philadelphia, PA
james, you can address me as nancy. check this out: czcams.com/video/m3XNiTbdeco/video.html&list=PLHltrgjlcIQNE9z1s6RUm653AHT1es5vZ&index=31 . but i will add your recipe request to my list for a future video. thanks for watching
It’s nice 👍but for me I won’t need any strain up mushroom water because I’m worry there would be sand on the mushroom but it’s still okay if I won’t use any strain m, water.. Btw, I love your dog.. Am animal lover so am crazy about it💕
You can drain the mushroom-soaking liquid through a coffee filter, to ensure the final broth is sand-free. It's what I always do, anyway. That mushroom liquid is full of flavour!
I haven’t had this soup before but it looks delicious. I would like to try making it but unsure how to eat it. Do you eat the dates and bean curd or just drink the broth?
My mom just gave me a whole bag of bean curd sticks the other day! Do you think you can show us other ways to prepare bean curd sticks? I think we can stir-fry bean curd sticks right? I know they go well with wood ear mushrooms. Yum! I love your channel, thank you for sharing with us all your lovely family recipes! It's a great time to learn how to cook my grandparents cooked for us!
you can, but then its a different soup. like the difference between a tortilla and a slice of bread. soy curd skin is delicious, its a slippery firm texture.
jenievive, yes you can sub black or red dates instead of honey dates. feel free to share pics of your soup on my facebook page: facebook.com/yucancook7/ thanks for watching!
nephthys3150, no need, once you put the mushrooms in hot/warm water, any grit will fall to the bottom of the bowl. after the soaking period, you can simply rub the mushroom caps in the bowl before using. happy cooking!

Finally I can try cooking (favorite mushroom + beancurd stick) cantonese soup without meat!

Thank you for the soup recipe. I’m going to make this today for a delicious way to homeopathically lower blood pressure with the shiitake mushrooms.
I’m looking in how to prepare the already pack fried skin of beancurd horn, this looks similar
Thank you, I enjoyed that recipe. I vaguely remember that but forgot about carrots and dates as part
of the ingredients.
thanks for watching, terry!
Dear Yu: Thank you for this demonstration. It's good to know that the 腐竹 takes two hours to cook. James

You can definitely eat all the ingredients. Bean Curd sticks are one of my favorite foods and can be cooked in many ways.

What is honey date?
honey dates are dried dates, they're mostly used in chinese slow simmer soups.
😋😋😋
Hi can I add tofu and enoki mushrooms to the soup?
you can, but then its a different soup. like the difference between a tortilla and a slice of bread. soy curd skin is delicious, its a slippery firm texture.
If I'm using fresh bean curds, do I still have to let it simmer for 2 hours?
can i use Black dates instead of honey dates
jenievive, yes you can sub black or red dates instead of honey dates. feel free to share pics of your soup on my facebook page: facebook.com/yucancook7/

do u wash the mushrooms b4 soaking them?
nephthys3150, no need, once you put the mushrooms in hot/warm water, any grit will fall to the bottom of the bowl. after the soaking period, you can simply rub the mushroom caps in the bowl before using. happy cooking!
YuCanCook Will this as taste good with vegetable stock?
I am vegetarian
