Description
Qing tang (清汤, clear stock) is the master clear stock of Shandong and Chinese court cooking — the most laboriously produced stock in Chinese cuisine, achieved by a process of repeated clarification using minced meat (the technique called sao tang, 扫汤, literally sweeping the broth). The result is a stock of crystalline clarity and exceptional depth of flavour — used as the base for the most refined soups and sauces in Shandong and Huaiyang cooking, including wensi tofu, lion's head meatball clear version, and superior wonton soup.
