The use of softshell turtle in preparing a delicious Chinese delicacy goes way back in the history of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Time has proven that it doesn’t only satisfy a craving tastebud but also pleases the body with the amount of nutrients it actually brings—protein and minerals among others.

Aside from your classic soup, how else can softshell turtles be enjoyed? Here’s a list of a few turtle recipes worth trying—approved by our resident cook at Ser Seng Herbs Turtle Restaurant!
