I have several cans of sharks fins and abalone at home. Even if armageddon comes, the Tan family will continue to wine and dine. Bon appetit!

Go for the real deal my friend the real deal

Corn starch.

2 types of starch. Corn and topical.

Topical more shinny and less starchy.

traditionally i will soak the big fin for few hours. then leave it to boil over small fire . add crab meats,dry scallop vinger ,pepper and some starch(forget what starch)
once the fragrance fish smell is out, i know is ready.

Crab meat in sharkfin soup is common
Egg give the 蛋花 and texture.
Try it.
Add hua tiao , black vinegar and pepper.

Add whiskey or brandy....slurp slurp

Add Japanese mirin, a special kind of cooking wine. I believe Daiso, Donki and Isetan have it.

No Chinese cooking condiment can replicate its taste.

Why eat only the fin and throw away the rest of the shark?

traditionally i never use any stock or msg for the soup base.just plain water and some dry scallop.however will try some fresh chicken wings as soup base this time.

Open a can of abalone...slice the abalone thinly and add the abalone water from the can to the stock.

Can eat dont waste.
When eat fish also make sure to eat the fins and tail too.

Only the fucking angmos and angmo wannabes oppose the eating of shark fins.

There aren't too many natural predators of sharks, you have to control their populations to keep the beaches safe for tourists.
