Chive, Pig's Blood and Fishball Bowl

Why people make this dish

Chive, pig’s blood, radish and fishball in an aromatic broth is a beloved classic comfort bowl. Street-vendor versions are best enjoyed only occasionally, since a heavy addition of lard can push the cholesterol up. Making it at home takes a little time, but it’s tasty and cleaner, and an occasional bowl is no harm at all. The secret is the broth: it must be simmered from pork bones and aromatics for the dish to taste right.
