Yellow croaker clam chowder ingredients and recipe

Yellow croaker clam chowder

I learned this soup from my father. He fried the whole head of a baotou fish and put it in hot water. He also added dried shrimp, ham, enoki mushrooms and dried shrimp. He used a clay pot to make such a thick and delicious soup. In my own kitchen, I replaced the baotou fish with yellow croaker, reduced the dried shrimp, and increased the clams to make this very rich and delicious yellow croaker and clam soup. So, whether you use baotou fish, sea bass, mandarin fish or other fish, it’s all fine. Remember to use a clay pot to stew the soup to keep it warm. It will taste warmer when it’s cold.
