Cooking tips 💡

• Do not fry the yellow croaker at the beginning, as it may fall apart. Use just enough water and simmer gently to achieve a rich, white broth.
• Coating the yellow croaker with sesame oil and mirin beforehand helps eliminate its strong fishy odor effectively.
• Avoid stirring vigorously after adding the egg, as it can make the broth cloudy. Let it sit, then gently break the yolk for a clean finish.
