Bat Trang is famous for not only ceramics but also a very delicious dish – Kohlrabi fried with dried cuttlefish. It is an indispensable dish in every feast of the people here. Bamboo shoots are often cooked with beef or pork ribs. Few people know it can be cooked with cuttlefish. This is a traditional dish of the people in Bat Trang. Its broth is made from shrimp, pig’s bones and chicken. Bamboo shoots are soaked in water for 2 hours until they become soft. Shred them into pieces. Boil the bamboo shoots for 3 times.
Mix them with fish sauce, salt. Then fry them with onion. The cuttlefish is washed by ginger water to remove its fishy taste. Shred the cuttlefish into small pieces and stir-fry. Besides bamboo shoots and cuttlefish, we can also use lean and feat meat to enhance the buttery taste for the soup. Bamboo shoots, cuttlefish and meat must be stir-fried before we simmer the mixture and the broth in 20-30 minutes. Bat Trang bamboo shoot and cuttlefish soup is a complicated dish to cook. A good soup must have a bright yellow, sweet taste and flavor of cuttlefish. The broth must be pure. Crisp bamboo shoots and tough cuttlefish make the soup more attractive.
