About Bak ku teh
Bak Ku Teh, a beloved dish from Chinese-Malaysian and Singaporean cuisine, translates to "meat bone tea." It is a hearty herbal soup made by simmering pork ribs with a blend of Chinese herbs and spices such as star anise, cinnamon, cloves, and garlic, often complemented by tofu, mushrooms, or vegetables. The broth is deeply aromatic and traditionally served with a side of rice or noodles. Rich in protein from the pork and infused with antioxidants from medicinal herbs, Bak Ku Teh offers potential immune-boosting benefits. However, it can be high in fat depending on the cut of pork used, and its sodium content may be significant due to soy sauce seasoning. Opting for leaner cuts of meat and moderating the use of salt can make it a more balanced and nutritious meal while preserving its robust flavors.
