I am curious about this Shanton Broth that's frequently mentioned and used by Iron Chef Chinese, Ken kenichi. Google search turned up several versions. I am just wondering, since Shanton is a distirct of Guandong, if there is an origianal version of this Shanton Broth. Morimoto'sShanton Broth used in his Crab soup recipe.

They're just referring to superior broth, shang tang. Here's an entry that mentions it. The Japanese translater muddled the translation, hence you ended up with Shanton.
