A comforting, nourishing dinner with BB: two claypot soups with brown rice, $25.42. π
What we had ($25.42):
- Two claypot soups with gingko, lotus seed and beancurd skin
- A bowl of brown rice
Sometimes you just want a gentle, restorative meal, and this was exactly that. The two claypot soups came piping hot in their black pots, an amber, savoury-sweet broth simmered with gingko nuts, lotus seeds and soft beancurd skin, the kind of soup that feels like it is doing you good as you drink it.
The gingko has that faintly bitter, chestnutty bite, the lotus seeds are soft and mild, and the beancurd skin soaks up the broth until it is saturated with flavour. Served with a bowl of nutty brown rice alongside, it is a wholesome, soothing combination.
It is not a flashy dinner, but there is real comfort in a warm, nourishing bowl, the sort of meal that settles you after a long day. A quiet, healthy sort of dinner, and a nice change from the heavier rotation.
Overall: 4.6 / 5. πππΌ Warm, nourishing claypot soups with gingko and lotus seed over brown rice, gently comforting. Would re-do.
