Notes
Cilantro/Coriander Soup - Chinese Style
One big mistake many cooks/chefs make is they leave the veggies chopped in the soup without blending them. The end result feels like chopped veggies floating in water and it doesn't not taste nor look good! For this reason its important to Pulse the soup in a mixer/blender and grind it to a nice even consistency. Bon Appetit!
