PREPARATION: Rinse rice 2 or
3 times. Soak overnight. Mince green onions and water chestnuts. Mix with ground pork, soy sauce and salt. COOKING: Bring stock and rice to a boil. Turn heat down and simmer for 2-3 hours or until the rice breaks down completely and the soup becomes thick and creamy. Turn heat up and add ground pork mixture, shaping 1 t. at a time into a small ball and dropping it into the soup. Cook for 5 minutes or until pork balls are done. Correct seasoning. Serve in individual soup bowls. Pass the condiments around for each person to choose his favorite toppings. Do ahead notes: Make ahead and reheat slowly.

COMMENTS: You
can also use chicken slices, ground beef, fish filet or ham slices. A roast chicken or turkey carcass is excellent for making the stock. Just cook the carcass, rice and water together. Take out the carcass when the soup is done.
