Klang Bak Kut Teh

Klang Bak Kut Teh Spices

For this recipe, I am using a 45 grams packet of “Mo Sang Kor” (毛山稿肉骨茶) Klang bak kut teh (bkt) spice mix. Mo Sang kor is a popular bkt restaurant with a few branches in Klang, Malaysia, and they happen to sell their own brand of premix bkt spice. I bought mine from Malacca for RM6 per packet.

  2. Use the wrinkled kind of dried bean curd skin for stewing bak kut teh. The smooth type is more suitable for making fu chok (Chinese dessert) and requires pre-soaking.

    Mo Sang Kor Klang Bak Kut Teh is sold at JB City Square, 3rd floor, the shop near Famous Amos! I think the shop name is called “Local Products”.
