Shrimp, Spinach & Radish Soup

Why do we think that we can only use radish raw? This soup alters that idea. Radish is delicious with spinach and shrimp.

• 42 ounces chicken broth
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 2 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
• 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/4 to 1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
• 2 cups sliced scallions
• 2 1/2 cups sliced radishes
• 2 to 2 1/2 cups shredded spinach leaves
• 1 pound raw, de-veined shrimp, halved
• 1/2 cup enoki or shitaki mushrooms sliced for garnish

METHOD

in a large soup kettle, bring broth to a boil. Stir in ginger, sugar, pepper, cayenne and vinegar. Stir in scallions, radishes and spinach. Bring to a strong simmer, and cook about 5 minutes

Stir in shrimps. Simmer for five minutes more.

Remove from heat and let stand for 5-6 minutes.

Garnish with mushrooms and serve.

Serves: 4- 6
