Instructions
- Ingredients
- Grill some squids, if using, and shallots until getting little burned.
- Wash dried shrimps several times with water to remove any dirt.
- In a large pot, cook the pork bones with water for 10 minutes or until all the impurities raise to the top. Dump out the whole pot; wash the pot and the bones carefully with tap water.

Season the broth with some salt, rock sugar, and seasoning powder, if using. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes. (Skim off as much the foam as possible to achieve the clear but flavorful broth)
- After 30 minutes, remove the lean pork from the broth and place it into a bowl; wait for it cool down completely and slice thinly. Once again, cover and simmer the broth for 1 or 2 hours. Then, discard all the pork bones, radish, yellow onions,...
