Oh both of my kids love soup that's why I try to cook soup every other day! Besides the usual ABC soup, assorted carrot soup, winter melon soup, old cucumber soup etc.... I started to explore more variety ways of preparing soup since I got a copy of ‘100 种 最好喝鸡汤’ from the library. 100 types! hahaha will take some time to attempt all but I will only select those that looks appealing to me and of course suitable for the kids' palate :) Wanna try this super nourishing and cooling soup today?!
Get the largest coconut, stuffed in softened white fungus, huai shan, wolf berries, chicken drumstick and some fresh coconut water + water. I did not add in all the coconut water as the taste of the soup will be too overwhelming. So if you fill in 1/2 cup coconut water, top up with 1/4 cup water to dilute the liquid. Fill in as much liquid as you can to submerge all the ingredients. Cover and steam for 1.5 hours :)

This soup looks delicious, and cooking it in coconut shells must be really fragrant, especially with the coconut juice! Lovely! Thanks for sharing with CYB!
