Pig Stomach with Ginko Nuts Nourishing Soup

I loved the pig stomach soup that my mum used to cooked at home (mainly using pork rib, pig stomach, garlic and pepper seeds) but recently I went to a restaurant and tasted this pig stomach soup with Ginko nuts and decided to try it out personally with some variations of course!

Ingredients needed:

1 Cleaned Pig Stomach (can get from Supermarket easily nowadays)
600g Pig Tail Bone (or Pork Rib if you preferred)
1 small Button Mushroom Can
1 vacuum pack Ginko Nuts (can get from Supermarket or Wet Market)
3 slices of Young Ginger
2 tbsp of Pepper
1 Pack of Golden Needle Mushroom 金针菇 (Clean and leave aside first)
3 Litre of water
1 tsp Salt
1 Sugared Dates (蜜枣)

Method:
  • Put Pig Tail Bone or Pork Rib in pot and add water and bring it to boil for 10 minutes.  Remove to drain and clean and leave aside.
  • Put Pig Stomach in pot and add water and bring it to boil for 15 minutes.  Remove to drain and clean and cut into strips.
  • Put cleaned boiled Tail Bone/Pork Ribs and stomach in pot and add in 3 litre of water then bring it to boil. 
  • Add in the ginger, pepper, sugared dates and button mushroom and boil with high heat for 15 minutes, then turn to medium fire and continue to boil for another 2.5 hours.   (To save gas, after boiling with high heat for 15 minutes, you can pour to your thermal pot and leave it alone for 4 hours and then bring out the pot to stove and boil on high heat for 30 minutes before serving will do).
  • Add in some if your pot evaporated water fast!
  • Lastly, add in golden needle mushroom and salt and bring to boil then serve with hot rice!
This soup has lots of ingredients so you don't even need to cook other dishes if lazy ha ha...

Enjoy!!
