 MMMMM------------------PON PON SHREDDED CHICKEN-----------------------
       3 c  Stock (or water)
       3    Or 4 chicken breasts *
       2    Bean paste sheets (or wide
            -carrot or cucumber strips)
 
 MMMMM-------------------------SEASONING------------------------------
       2 tb Peanut butter
       1 ts Sesame oil
     1/2 ts Light soy sauce
     1/2 ts Red pepper oil
 
 MMMMM---------------------------SAUCE--------------------------------
     1/2 ts Sugar
     1/2 ts Sesame oil
     1/4 ts Salt
  
   * (to produce approximately 1 1/2 cups of shredded chicken)
   
   1.  Mix well, separately, seasoning and sauce ingredients.
   
   2.  Bring stock (or salted water) to the boil, immerse chicken
   breasts and turn off flame.  Soak until cooled, then shred into
   strips. (Alternatively, for authentic and finer texture, cover
   breasts with a clean cloth and shred by hitting them with a
   mallet++hence the sound of ponpon.)
   
   3.  Lay bean paste sheets in a suitable flat container, and blanch in
   hot water for 1 to 2 minutes.  Remove and rinse under cold running
   water. Drain and cut into finger-sized strips and mix with sauce
   mixture.
   
   4.  Spoon into serving dish, pile shredded chicken on top and pour
   seasoning mixture over.
