About Cantonese old-fire soup
Made With Lau shares Daddy Lau’s pork and radish soup as an example of the Cantonese old-fire soup tradition. The family connects this everyday preparation with home cooking and the father’s decades of experience as a Chinese chef.
Lean pork, daikon and carrots flavour a broth with ginger and dried shiitake mushrooms. Chicken broth and water form the cooking liquid, with salt added at the end to season the soup.
Chunks of meat and vegetables remain in the finished broth. The publisher offers either thick slices or angular vegetable pieces, and serves the soup directly from the pot or in a serving bowl.
