This is one of the few Chinese soups that I love.
It's very peppery, with a touch of sourness from the preserved veggie, and the tender but still slightly chewy pig stomach. Perfect to warm ourselves up when the weather is cooler.
And if you haven't tried pig stomach, please do :)
When it's done right, you'll love it.
Recipe
- about 1/2 lb pig stomach (if you live in Hong Kong, supermarkets normally sell the cleaned pig stomach and preserved vegetable in a pack, if not, ask if your butcher has it ^_^)
- a pack of sour preserved vegetable (suen choi)
- cracked peppercorns, white pepper (lots of it)

- pork bone (this gives the soup its "essence". A touch of sweetness and meatiness)
- Beancurd sheets (optional)
- salt, hot water
Add chunks of pig stomach, sour preserved vegetable and pork bone into a pot of boiling water, add peppercorns and white pepper, simmer until the pig stomach chunks are tender, season, add beancurd sheets, serve hot.
Happy slurping!

Hehe. I would like a bowl of this please.
oh how I miss pig stomach in soup! You guys get the good stuff in HK!!!
This reminds me of my mum-in-law! She used to cook this for Chinese New Year, it's one of the dishes that the peranakans cook for the season! I don't eat the stomach but enjoy the soup only!
I love this peppery soup and pig stomach! Haven't had pig stomach for a while now.
Love this too! But have never tried it with preserved veg, nice addition!
Hmm I've had pig intestine...wonder if it tastes the same.
I have never tried this combo in a soup, but it sounds interesting! Isn't it a bit greasy though, because I thought pig's belly is rather full of fat? - My knowledge of pig'd anatomy is rather low that's why...;).
We usually have this during Chinese New Year. Yes...the white peppercorn in the pig stomach works for me.
I am sad to say you are braver than I. I happily eat it but am not sure I would be brave enough to cook it :)_
my fave soup! my mum cooks this well. Haven't tried cooking it because I'm not sure how to clean the stomach hehe
