Both my kids have rather different taste. Usually if one like a soup, chances are, the other doesn't. *faint* Although, I still
force ask them to drink it whether they like it or not (cos I spend hours making them), I'll still continue to experiment to get just an additional soup that both will like.
My son loves
Shark's Fin Melon soup, so you guess it. My daughter doesn't. I tweaked
my original recipe little by adding corn here for the sweetness.
Results ... I don't have to force her to drink it but she didn't quite like it either. Haiz .... Maybe, you'll like this version?
