Okay, a stock question for you: sometimes I see recipes identified as Chinese chicken stock. They often contain ginger, but some of them specify using some kind of pork, not typically smoked, like maybe a pork neck bone or something. Is this common?

 

Yes. Very. In fact, almost always. 

 

Certainly the ginger. The pork component is usually an unsmoked ham. When I do make an elevated Chinese stock I like to use Jinhua ham but for everyday stock skip that part.

Certainly the ginger. The pork component is usually an unspoken ham. When I do make an elevated Chinese stock I like to use Jinhua ham but for everyday stock skip that part.
