This is a nutritious and nourishing old fire soup that has been simmered for three hours on a small clay pot. Generally speaking, people think of purine when it comes to Laohuotang, which is the enemy of people's health. However, there is still a rescue method, which is to make the cleaned pork bones according to the recipe procedure before boiling the soup, which can remove 90% of the purines.

3. Boil the pork bones in a pot under cold water until they turn slightly discolored and pour out the dirty blood water, so that the soup will be sweet

4. Boil the pork bones in a pot under cold water again to boil off the purines and part of the fat of the pork bones. Bring to a boil for 2 to 3 minutes. Pour off the water to wash off the fat and scum still on the pork bones.

Tips:
1. Add enough water at one time, and no cold water in the middle, to prevent the protein from freezing and solidifying, which will affect the umami taste of the soup;
2. Add only salt and vinegar to the seasoning, without adding any seasonings, the food is the original flavor;
3. Turn on the minimum heat. It is best to only have a small tumbling in the center of the noodle soup. If the heat is too high, the soup has not reached the heat, and the water has boiled dry;
4. The salt should be put out last, otherwise it will affect the precipitation of protein;
5. For your health, please skim the slick during the cooking process;
