Pig’s brain soup
Well, here it is, pig’s brain soup (猪脑汤), lovingly made by YowCH (big thanks to Grace’s mum for buying the brain and cleaning it).
Ingredients:
1 or 2 pig’s brain, all veins carefully removed.
Slices of ginger.
Vegetable (Chinese mint, spinach, or any other vege for soup)
Pinch of salt.
Dash of sugar.
1 or 2 eggs (as option for those who eat not the delicious brains)
Method (10 mins total):
Boil water, dump in ginger slices and simmer for 2 minutes, add the brains.
When water boils, add vegetables and simmer until vege is soft.
Add salt and sugar to taste, stir and crack eggs into soup.
Boil for 2 minutes, serve while hot.
YowCH has been eating this since young, this is Grace’s second round (first round was some 10-plus years ago in some restaurant in South Bridge Road), Esther likes it (“creamy like durians”), Davids hates it and Joseph is OK.
