Always UttoriLeave a comment

Hey Uttori readers, in case you haven't noticed, I’ve been on hiatus lately, but that doesn't mean that I've been idle. Our team is always trying to think of ways to engage and entertain Always Uttori readers. With that in mind, I'm excited to announce our new vlog series: Mission to Munch.

Girl + Food | Ginger and Chicken Congee

I love a good nourish bowl, but when the winter chill starts wearing you down, sometimes the best medicine starts with a bit of carb(y) goodness. That's why I'm sharing my take on a thousands-of-years old Chinese standard - congee.

  3. When porridge has cooked for designated period of time, the rice will have broken down, becoming soft. The porridge will be thick and creamy. Add salt to taste
  4. Chop the chicken into generous chunks. Transfer porridge to bowls. Garnish with chicken, sauteed bok choy, mushrooms, cilantro, sesame seeds, and green onions. If desired, drizzle with soy sauce.
  5. To Make Lemon Sautéed Bok Choy Thoroughly wash bok choy. Cut off the bottom and discard, or re-grow by setting in enough water to cover bottom. Sautée the leaves on medium heat with lemon juice, until leaves have wilted, but have retain a bit of crunch. Salt to taste.
