Soybean, Bitter Melon and Pork Bone Soup
Overview
I haven’t made this soup for a long time. This kind of local soybeans is only available in my hometown. This time when I went back to my hometown during the Mid-Autumn Festival, my mother-in-law bought this kind of soybeans. Really delicious. It smells so good. In Guangzhou they are all genetically modified soybeans. Therefore, no one buys soybeans. When I was a child, I didn't like eating bitter melons that were too bitter. My mother used this method of salting them to remove the bitterness. When I grew up, I still wasn't used to eating bitter melons.
