The texture of this tofu soup recipe with silky tofu is smoother and less crunchy than the tofu soup recipe with carrot and bamboo shoot although both are thickened soups.
Dried scallops 干贝 (gan bei) is a common chinese dried good. When it is fully rehydrated, it is plump, slightly chewier and full of flavour. Tasty! One of my favorite soup stock ingredients.
