The use of the word "[[ox]]" in this context is a legacy of nomenclature; no specialized stock of beef animals are used and tails may come from bovines other than oxen.

== Chinese oxtail soup ==
Though translated literally as "oxtail soup" (牛尾汤 ''Niúwěi tāng''), this version of the dish is somewhere between a [[soup]] and a [[stew]]. One of the defining characteristics of oxtail soup is that it contains a large mass of solid ingredients, rather than ingredients that have been diced or shredded, as is the norm with Chinese soup. Chunks of oxtail, potato, carrots, cabbage, tomato, and mushrooms are mixed in water, and salted to taste. The mixture should be heated at a slow boil, to allow time for the ingredients to release their flavors. In particular, the tomatoes and potatoes should largely disintegrate into the water, giving the broth a reddish-orange coloration and thickening it. As to be expected, oils from the oxtail lend most of the flavor. The soup is served with all of the ingredients.

[[File:Sup Buntut - Nelayan Indonesian Restaurant.jpg|thumb|Indonesian ''sop buntut'']]
In [[Indonesian cuisine]], oxtail soup ({{lang-langx|id|sop buntut}}) is a popular dish. It is made of slices of fried or barbecued oxtail, served with vegetables in a rich but clear beef broth. It contains boiled potatoes, carrots, tomatoes, leek, celery, fried shallots and dried black mushrooms. Indonesian ''sop buntut'' is seasoned with [[shallot]], [[garlic]] and native [[spice]]s such as [[black pepper]], [[nutmeg]], and [[clove]]. A relatively new variant is called ''sop buntut goreng'' (fried oxtail soup), where the oxtail is seasoned, fried and served dry; the soup is served in a separate bowl. The dish is commonly eaten with rice and accompanied by [[sambal]], sweet soy sauce and lime juice. Some restaurants specialize in oxtail soup, among them thebeing famousthe Bogor Café in the Hotel Borobudur in Central Jakarta.<ref>{{cite news | title = Tasty oxtail soup at Bogor Café | author = Tifa Asrianti | newspaper = The Jakarta Post | location = Jakarta | date = 16 January 2011 | url = http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2011/01/16/tasty-oxtail-soup-bogor-caf%C3%A9.html | archive-date = 12 January 2016 | access-date = 18 March 2016 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20160112015523/http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2011/01/16/tasty-oxtail-soup-bogor-caf%C3%A9.html | url-status = dead }}</ref>

==Korean oxtail soup ==
[[File:Kkori-gomtang.jpg|thumb|Korean ''kkori-gomtang'']]
 
[[Korean cuisine|Korean]] oxtail soup, called ''kkori-gomtang'' ({{lang|ko|꼬리곰탕}}), is a type of ''[[gomguk]]'' (beef bone soup). It is colloquially known as "bone soup". The broth is made with raw oxtail, garlic, salt, black pepper, green onions and other typical Korean flavors. The soup must be simmered at low heat for several hours to soften the meat and make the broth. During this time, the layer of fat must be regularly skimmed from the surface of the pot and discarded. The final result is a rich beef broth with a garlic taste and bits of soft meat.
