Cha Shu Gu is very well liked by my family too. I haven't make soup with it, should try out sometime. My father's friend got him so Cha Shu Gu from China (東北).I simply stir fried with minced pork, it tastes wonderful and Cha Shu Gu is somehow crispy but still tender.
wow where do u get this in singapore??
