Dried Bok Choy Soup

Step 1

Put 1 bunch (3 oz) of choy gon (dried bok choy) into the bowl and pour 6 cups of water. Let it soak for 1-2 hours to remove dirt and bugs. Then, wash them very well like 3 times.

Step 2

After that, put ½ cup (3 oz) of dried scallops into the container and pour 1 cup of water to wash and rinse the dried scallops 2-3 times in order to remove sand and dirt.

Step 3

Then, wash or rinse 1.5 pounds of pork bones (4 pieces) with hot water. Some people like to boil the pork bones to remove excess blood and fat before making soup.
