First, the large bones are washed and blanched to remove blood residue, then a secret sauce and spices are added along with an appropriate amount of water, and simmered until the meat separates from the bones and the broth becomes rich. Finally, ingredients such as tofu and potatoes can be added to absorb the essence of the broth.
