INGREDIENTS

5 lb Pork ribs or short ribs
5 To large potatoes, up to 6
1 Watercress, up to 2
2 Inches ginger root, up to 3
1 Onion
1 Kombu, dried seaweed – found
in oriental section
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Shoyu, soy sauceif desired
for added taste and color

INSTRUCTIONS

Cut the pork ribs into pieces using the bone of the ribs as a
guideline, if there is no ribs towards the end piece of the meat, cut
into good size strips.  Put this into a large pot and add water until
it covers the meat, make sure that there is enough water for the  soup,
preferrably 2-3 inches above the meat.  Add a dash of salt and  pepper.
Wash the ginger and crush/smash whole then throw into soup.  slice the
onion so that there are in strips and add to soup along with the
ginger. Heat should be set at medium to medium high.  Cook for 25-30
minutes.  In the meantime, soak the kombu in hot water.  Peel potatoes
and cut  into quarters or smaller pieces, if desired.  Do not cut
potatoes too  small. This will melt slightly and thicken soup.  Leave
this in a  bowl of water so that the potatoes don't get brown.  Take
each  kombu/seaweed strip (usually there are two to three strips per
package) and tie knots into this, cut in between the knots and throw
into soup.  Cook for another 5-10 minutes before adding in potatoes.
Continue cooking until potatoes are cooked or slightly melted (this
can be tested by poking the largest piece of potato with a fork, if
the fork can go thru the potato with easy then its ready). Turn heat
down to low.  Take watercress and wash well. Cut watercress into thirds
or fourths.  Add to soup and cover. Simmer for another 3-5 minutes or
until the  watercress is slightly melted.  Add shoyu to taste and serve
with  rice. Posted to Recipe Archive - 20 October 96  Date: Sun, 20 Oct
