What You Need
To make Canh Khổ Qua Nhồi Thịt, gather the following ingredients:
Bitter melon: Bitter melon is the star ingredient for this soup. When simmered in hot broth, it’s not as bitter as its raw form. But be forewarned. It’s still very bitter.
It’s a taste that haunts us during childhood but it’s also a taste that we get more accustomed to as we get older. In some cases, we actually enjoy the darn vegetable as adults.
We are told over and over as kids we need to eat bitter melon for their health benefits. And it’s true.
Bitter melon is a powerhouse of vitamin C, crucial for disease prevention, bone formation, and wound healing properties. It’s also high in vitamin A for skin health and vision. It’s also low in calories but high in fiber.
Ground pork: Ground pork is the traditional choice for this soup, but feel free to substitute with any other ground meat you prefer. Chicken and tofu are both delicious alternatives.
Woodear mushroom: Woodear mushroom, also known as black fungus, adds textural contrast and crunch to the ground pork mixture. You can get it fresh or dried. I prefer the dried form, as it’s nonperishable and can be quickly rehydrated for use when needed.
