👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
Prepare the broth: Rinse pork bones and chicken carcass under cold water. Blanch them in boiling water for 5 minutes, then drain and rinse again to remove impurities. This step is crucial for a clear broth.
- 2
In a large stockpot, combine the blanched bones and carcass with 4 liters of fresh water. Add the sliced ginger, peeled garlic cloves, and peeled shallots. Bring to a boil, then skim off any foam or scum that rises to the surface.
- 3
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 1.5 to 2 hours. The longer it simmers, the richer the flavor.
- 4
While the broth simmers, toast the star anise, cinnamon stick, cloves, and coriander seeds in a dry pan over medium heat until fragrant. Place the toasted spices in a cheesecloth bag or a large tea infuser.
- 5
Add the spice bag to the simmering broth during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Season the broth with salt and rock sugar to taste. Remove the spice bag and bones before serving.
- 6
Prepare the noodles: If using dried noodles, cook according to package directions until al dente. If using fresh noodles, blanch them briefly in boiling water. Drain well.
- 7
To assemble the bowls: Divide the cooked noodles among four large soup bowls. Arrange the thinly sliced pork loin, pork liver, and shrimp on top of the noodles. Pour the hot, clear broth over the noodles and meat. The heat of the broth will cook the thinly sliced pork and liver.
- 8
Garnish each bowl with a generous amount of bean sprouts, chopped scallions, chopped cilantro, and fried garlic. Serve immediately with lime wedges and hoisin sauce on the side for diners to customize their soup.
