Instructions

Step 1

Remove the bitter gall attached to the chicken liver and give it a quick rinse.

Slice the chicken liver into thin pieces, add the cooking wine and a splash of water, and soak for 2 minutes. Rinse the pea shoots.

Step 3

Pour the broth into a pot and bring to a boil, then hold it at a gentle simmer. Sprinkle in the chicken liver slices and blanch over low heat just until tender and just-cooked through, then lift them out and place into a soup bowl with the pea shoots layered on top.

Skim the foam off the surface of the broth, season with the fine salt, MSG, and white pepper, bring back to a boil, then pour the hot broth into the soup bowl and serve immediately.
