Quantities are estimated based on standard recipes for your convenience. The actual ingredients used in this video are accurate.

1

Start by gathering the ingredients for the broth: pork neck bones, pork backbone, pork trotters, whole chickens, chicken feet, garlic, onion, ginger, carrots, spring onions, dried sardines, dried prawns, dried scallops, dried shiitake mushrooms, kombu, and katsuobushi.

2

Ask the butcher to cut the pork trotters in half to extract more flavor and ensure all bones are cut to release marrow.

3

Use whole chickens for better flavor; older chickens (over 45 days) are preferred for broth.

4

Add chicken feet for gelatin to improve the mouthfeel of the broth.

5

Prepare basic aromatics: garlic, onion, and ginger.

6

Include vegetables like carrots and spring onions; leeks can be used as an alternative.

7

Incorporate dried seafood such as dried sardines, prawns, and scallops for umami flavor.

8

Use dried shiitake mushrooms instead of fresh for a stronger savory flavor.

9

Add kombu for richness and savoriness; it should be reconstituted before use.

10

Use katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes) for additional stock flavor.
