Soup Seasoning

Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the peanut
- Soak the peanuts overnight (or at least 5 hours) before use. Peel off the peanut skin. Rinse the peanuts until water runs clear.
Step 2: Parboil the meat ingredients
- Heat a large pot of water. Add pork bones, chicken carcass and chicken feet. Parboil for 3 to 5 mins. Drain the water and rinse the ingredients under tap water.
Step 3: Cook & store the stock
- In a stock pot, add pork bone, chicken carcass, chicken feet and peanuts. Bring it to boil for 10 mins. Reduce the heat and simmer the soup over low heat for 4 hours.
- Remove the bones and strain the broth twice to remove impurities. Pour it into heatproof container/bowl, let it cool in room temperature. Remove any layer of fats and store the broth. Estimate amount of stock would be 1.5L to 2L.
- Keep the soup in the chiller for up to a week. Alternatively, you may keep it in the freezer, and it will last up to a month.
Step 4: Melt the collagen and have it for steamboat
- Scope the collagen jelly and place it in the hotpot. Heat up and the collagen jelly and it will slowly melt into liquid form. Season with some salt, chicken stock concentrate and sesame oil. Add in the ingredients and enjoy!
