Chinese New Year is on 2/1 this year. I wish everyone a happy New Year! To celebrate this
special holiday, I m partnering with Knorr. I'll use Knorr Shrimp Cube to
make a super delicious seafood soup for this Chinese New Year. Knorr is
also hosting awesome sweepstakes, and here s more information about it.
In a large bowl, place in the shrimp, scallops, and clams.
In a pot of water over high heat, bring it to a boil, place in the ginger, and rice wine.
Transfer in the shrimp, scallops, and clams, and quickly blanch them for 15 seconds. By doing so,
the fishy taste will be mostly removed. Remove the shrimp, scallops, clams, and place them
in ice water. By doing so, they will stop cooking, and won't be overcooked. Remove the ginger,
drain, and set aside.
In a pot over high heat, bring 6 cups of water to a boil,
place in the carrots, and boil for 10 minutes.
Remove the carrots, reserve the water, and let the carrots cool for 5 minutes.
In a food processor, add the carrot and 1/2 cup of water,
and puree until smooth. If you had a hand blender, you can also blend it in the pot directly.
In the same pot of water over high heat, bring it to a boil.
Transfer in the carrot puree and mix well. Also, add the
Knorr Shrimp Cube
and cook until dissolved.
Return the shrimp, scallops, and clams. Bring it to a boil, and pour in the cornstarch starch
slurry. I have here 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 4 tablespoons of water. And, stir until thickened.
Lastly, add the scallions.
Enjoy!
