pork broth

Swine-based liquid

Pork broth is a savory liquid made by simmering pork bones, meat, or both in water, often with aromatics like onion and garlic.

It serves as a base for soups, stews, and sauces, particularly in Asian cuisines: The ramen was built on a rich pork broth.

Lighter than stock, which typically simmers longer with more bones.
