Double boiling is a Cantonese cooking technique to prepare delicate food such as fish maw. The food is covered with water and put in a covered ceramic jar, and the jar is then steamed for several hours. This technique ensures there is no loss of liquid or moisture (its essences) from the food being cooked, hence it is often used with exquisite and delicate ingredients like Chinese herbal medicines.

Dried ingredients such as fish maw must be soaked for hours, usually overnight before it can be prepared for cooking. The double-boiling method takes generally 3-4 hours to finish. Also, in every morning, we go to our local suppliers to source the freshest chicken and coconut. It takes a lot of time and effort to make a double-boiled soup. However, this is our commitment to guarantee our products have the best quality.
