Ba Kut Teh soup is a flavorful herbal dish originating from Chinese-Malay cuisine, particularly popular in Malaysia and Singapore. The name translates to "meat bone tea," though it contains no tea—its rich broth is stewed with pork ribs, garlic, soy sauce, and a blend of aromatic herbs and spices like star anise, cinnamon, and cloves. Variants may include mushrooms, tofu, or leafy greens for added texture and nutrients. Traditionally enjoyed as a hearty meal, the soup is praised for its warming properties and immune-supportive herbal ingredients. While the pork provides a good source of protein, the dish can be high in sodium and fat, depending on the preparation. Pairing it with rice or reducing added salts can help balance its nutritional profile. Ba Kut Teh showcases a harmonious blend of robust flavors and cultural heritage.
