Ba Kut Teh, meaning "meat bone tea" in Hokkien dialect, is a traditional dish originating from Chinese-Malay cuisine in Southeast Asia, particularly popular in Malaysia and Singapore. This aromatic soup combines pork ribs simmered in a rich broth infused with garlic, black pepper, and an array of herbs such as star anise, cinnamon, and cloves. Often enjoyed with rice or noodles, it can be paired with tofu, mushrooms, and leafy greens for added nutrition. While Ba Kut Teh is high in protein from the pork ribs, its health profile depends on preparation—traditional recipes may have high sodium due to soy sauce and salted condiments. For a healthier version, reducing salt and incorporating more vegetables can balance the dish. Its warming properties and herbal ingredients are also believed to offer some health benefits in traditional Chinese medicine practices.
