You can try sea snails, dried shrimp, dried octopus as well. You do have abalone in Australia though, although that's the more expensive route! Hope this helps!

This is called a Thermal Pot. It's originally Japanese design and has an insulated outer pot that keeps the inner pot hot (to allow it to continue to cook without electricity). Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions!
Job's tears!! Dried version... I should relabel this! Thank you for clarifying. Actually, this is a good idea for a post... the difference between these two. Thank you so much!
Oh, sorry to have missed this! I buy them from a few sources. Some I get on amazon, some I buy from my local Chinese supermarket (in Toronto) and a majority of the less common herbs I buy from the Chinese herbalist shops in Toronto as well. Specialty shops that sell dried herbs and dried goods. Hope this helps!
Oh no! What country? Maybe I can help you prioritize the ingredients and that way you can be more economical in how to build the soup and yet still benefit from it?
I live in the Caribbean. The Asian store I go to is pretty pricey. I might have to try the smaller store which is a little out of the way but I don't know what I'll find.
@@bluecrystal8548 OK, if you need to prioritize, see if you can find apricot kernals (amazing for coughs), snow fungus (might not be easy there), snow pears? Or any type of pears, either fresh or dried will work. You may also be able to find barley, which is a more common grain around the world. Figs should be OK as well. Let me know!! Good luck!
@@angelin6tang Oh! Solomon's seal! yes yes... you can replace the Chinese yam with this. 玉竹 is a neutral ingredient and perfect for increasing moisture in the body (increases dampness). So perfect!
You’re very pleasant and informative
Thank you!
Love it
Thanks so much for this great recipe! Any suggestions for meat since we are pescatarians.?
I've made this video here to look at meat replacements: ua-cam.com/video/IrfsdBiRQek/v-deo.html
I love using dried shiitake mushrooms in place of meats. They are fragrant, flavourful, and easy to use! Check it out and let me know how it goes!
@@TheChineseSoupLadyCom Great, idea, thank you!
Also where do you get these soup packages?
I get them from a friend who runs a packaged herbal shop in Toronto. Here's the site: www.souperwell.com/en-us Enjoy!
Conch is not readily available in Australia. Are there other ingredients we could substitute?
You can try sea snails, dried shrimp, dried octopus as well. You do have abalone in Australia though, although that's the more expensive route! Hope this helps!

What kind of pot is that that can be used on stove and in the other thing?!
This is called a Thermal Pot. It's originally Japanese design and has an insulated outer pot that keeps the inner pot hot (to allow it to continue to cook without electricity). Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions!
Is it dried fried barley or is it jobs tears in your recipe?

Where do you buy the dried herbs from

I'm afraid to even look for these ingredients in my country. Might cost an arm and a leg for all of them.

I found everything except the dried conch. I found everything in Gardena😊
Hi, can I replace dried Chinese yam with "Yuk Zuk"?
Hello! I'm sorry, what is Yuk Zuk? Do you have it in Chinese? Or a picture? Will do my best to reply!
玉竹, I searched in Google it named as Polygonatum Odoratum.

Great, thank you very much~😊
Ickkkkk snails. Ok nope
LOL, I get it... I've had the same feelings about other ingredients that I see sometimes...! :)
