The expert chefs at Pat Chun, Hong Kong's leading manufacturer
of sweetened vinegar, have been preparing the traditional post-natal dish of Pork
Knuckles & Ginger Stew for more than 60 years.
Made from pork knuckles, eggs, ginger and sweetened vinegar, it is enjoyed both as a
health food and as a celebratory dish after the birth of a child. Rich in calcium and
protein, new mothers are fed this dish to help them replenish nutrients lost during pregnancy.
It is also a time-honored tradition to distribute this dish to family and friends to announce
the arrival of a newborn.
