Introduction
This yam and pork rib soup is specially enhanced by simmering chicken wings with the ribs, using pickled melon to boost the savory sweetness. By cooking in stages, the yam achieves a perfect texture—tender yet firm—making this a restaurant-quality soup with complex layers of flavor.
Step 1
Peel the yam. Be careful not to let the back of your hands or elbows touch the yam mucilage during peeling; using your palms to grip it is recommended.
Step 2
Cut the yam into large chunks and soak in water immediately after cutting to prevent oxidation and discoloration. Use the flat side of a knife to smash the old ginger.
Step 3
Blanch the chicken wings and pork ribs in boiling water, then remove and rinse thoroughly.
Step 4
Pour 1800cc of water into a pot, add the blanched pork ribs, chicken wings, and smashed ginger. Use scissors to cut the pickled melon into small pieces and add them to the pot as well.
Step 5
Pour in 2 tbsp of rice wine, turn on the heat, keep it on low throughout the process, cover the pot, and simmer for 30 minutes.

Important Notes
⚠️ When peeling yams, the back of your hands and elbows can easily become itchy if they touch the mucilage. It is recommended to grip the yam with your palms. If they do get itchy, try rinsing with warm water to relieve it.
💡 After cutting the yam, it must be soaked in water immediately, otherwise, it will turn black upon contact with the air and affect the presentation.
✨ Adding chicken wings to the ribs during the simmer is the key secret to making the broth richer and more layered.
💡 The pickled melon is already salty enough, so no extra salt is needed for this soup.
🔥 The entire simmering process must be done over low heat. This ensures the yams stay soft and tender without becoming mushy or falling apart.
