Stewed Yellow Bean with Pork Elbow

This tender and flavorful Pork Knuckle with Soybeans recipe is a comforting, slow-simmered dish that’s rich in umami depth. Succulent pork knuckle is first blanched to remove impurities, then simmered with salted pork and aromatic star anise for a savory, fragrant broth. The magic happens as the soybeans soak up the rich flavors, turning creamy and tender. A splash of cooking wine, a hint of sugar, and a touch of oyster sauce at the end elevate the dish with a perfect balance of sweetness and saltiness. The result? A hearty, golden-yellow soup with melt-in-your-mouth pork and buttery soybeans—a nourishing meal that’s both satisfying and full of traditional comfort. Perfect for chilly days or whenever you crave a bowl of slow-cooked goodness!
