Method:
Blanch pork bones in boiling water,
rinse well, then cook in 15 cups of water with wine added for an hour.
Remove and discard bones, retain the soup broth. Remove shell
from bamboo shoot, trim off uneven surfaces and cut into large pieces.
Add to soup broth after the soup has boiled. Cook covered over
low heat. Do not uncover, or the bamboo shoots will be bitter.
Add ginger slices and cook for 30 minutes. Add salt to taste and
remove from heat. Garnish with cilantro to enhance the look and
flavor if desired. Serve. Pork bones are cheap and can be
purchased at any butcher's. The soup broth contains the marrow,
which moistens the bamboo shoot. Have the butcher bread the
bones to let the marrow flow out, so that the soup will taste better.
