Beef and Marrow Bone Soup
Make a hearty soup on a rich bone broth — lunch the whole family will love! This beef soup built on marrow bones turns out filling and looks every bit as good as it tastes. The ingredient list is a little out of the ordinary, and that's exactly what gives the soup its character: savory, rich, and a meal in itself. One of those unexpected ingredients is bok choy — a Chinese leafy green (also sold as pak choi) you'll find in most supermarkets. For the corn, pick young ears of a variety that cooks quickly.

- Rinse the marrow bones under running water, chop them into segments, and place them in a large pot. Rinse the beef shanks well too, and cut them into pieces sized so the finished soup is easy to portion and eat. Add the shanks to the pot with the bones and cover everything with cold water. 2. Set the pot over the heat and bring to a boil, then lower the heat. Foam will rise to the surface at this point — don't bother skimming it, since we'll be discarding this first broth. Carefully pour off all the water, cover the bones and shanks with fresh cold water, return the pot to low heat, and bring back to a boil. 3. Peel the garlic and press it in. Peel and dice the onion. Add both to the soup along with the fish sauce, cover the pot, and simmer gently until the beef is tender — about an hour and a half to two hours. 4. Season the soup with salt and ground black pepper to taste. Rinse the corn and cut each ear into two or three pieces depending on its size, add to the soup, and cook for 10 minutes. Rinse the bok choy under running water and add it 10 minutes after the corn. Simmer over low heat for another 3 minutes. 5. Rinse the green onions and cut them crosswise in half, add to the soup, and cook for another minute or two, then take the pot off the heat. Ladle into bowls and serve. Enjoy!
