ARROZ CALDO WITH COLLARDS AND SOY-CURED EGG YOLKS



Arroz Caldo With Collards and Soy-Cured Egg Yolks image

The Filipino rice porridge called lugaw started out as a simple equation of rice, water and salt, until the conquistadors arrived in the 16th century and demanded more sumptuous dishes. Add tripe and innards to lugaw, and it becomes goto; with chicken and saffron, it is arroz caldo. It's looser and soupier than Chinese congee, cooked until you can't see individual grains. I put in collard greens to make it a balanced meal and use wings because of the high bone-to-meat ratio and the jiggly skin. (Keeping the bones in will give the broth more flavor.) The soy sauce-cured yolks are probably best at the two-hour mark - they get firmer and saltier the longer they cure, so follow your taste.

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 servings (makes 12 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 eggs
2 tablespoons neutral oil, such as canola
1 medium yellow onion, minced
8 garlic cloves, minced
2 1/2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken flats and drumettes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup jasmine or other long-grain rice
10 cups chicken stock
1 pound collard greens, leaves ripped off stems, stems discarded and leaves roughly chopped
2 (2-inch) pieces skin-on ginger, each crushed into a few pieces, plus 1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and julienned, for garnish
2 large pinches of saffron
6 teaspoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons fish sauce
6 fresh calamansi or lemon wedges, for serving
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced, for serving

Steps:

  • Prepare the cured egg yolks - and save your egg carton, as it is the perfect egg-curing holder. You'll want to first remove the top of the eggs: Working with one at a time, tap each egg on a sharp corner of your work surface around the top third of the egg to pop off the crown. Pour the egg into one palm and let the egg white sink through your fingertips to separate the yolk from the whites, discarding the egg whites or saving them for another use. Gently slide the egg yolk back into its shell, top it with 1 teaspoon soy sauce, and swirl the yolk in its shell so the soy sauce is fully distributed, settling under the yolk as well. Transfer the egg yolk in its shell back into the egg container, setting it upright. Repeat with the remaining eggs, returning them all to the egg carton. Set aside to cure at room temperature.
  • In a large pot, heat the oil over medium. Add the onion and minced garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 7 minutes.
  • Add the chicken flats and drumettes, season with 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fat starts to render, about 5 minutes. Stir in the rice until coated in fat. Increase the temperature to medium-high, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice is toasted, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the stock, collards, crushed ginger pieces and saffron and bring to a boil over high.
  • Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is tender and almost falling off the bone, and the rice grains have broken down significantly, about 1 1/2 hours. The broth should be thinner than a Chinese congee, so add 1 cup of water at a time if the soup has thickened too much. Once you get to this stage, discard the crushed ginger pieces, which served as an aromatic.
  • Season the arroz caldo with the fish sauce, then divide among bowls. Top with a squeeze of calamansi or lemon (and serve additional wedges on the side, for those that like more acid), a soy-cured yolk, fried garlic, scallions and julienned ginger.

ARROZ CALDO

This aromatic Filipino-style rice porridge gets much of its flavor from ginger and fried garlic. Saffron, a Spanish influence on Filipino cooking, adds a golden hue. If you can find calamansi -- tart, fragrant Filipino citrus -- substitute them for the limes.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons canola oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
6 bone-in chicken thighs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 small onion, minced
One 1-inch piece of ginger, minced
3/4 cup jasmine rice
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
Pinch of saffron, plus saffron threads saved for garnish
1 bay leaf, torn
2 tablespoons fish sauce, plus more for serving
Juice of 1 lime, plus 1 lime cut into wedges, for serving
1/3 cup thinly sliced scallion greens

Steps:

  • Heat a 5-quart pot over medium-high heat. Add the oil and garlic and cook, stirring often, until the garlic is fragrant and golden, about 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the garlic to a paper-towel lined plate and set aside for serving. Remove the pot from the heat, leaving the garlic-infused oil in the pot.
  • Season the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Return the pot to the stove over medium-high heat, then add the chicken, skin-side down, and cook until the skin is golden, flipping halfway through, about 8 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a bowl. Add the onion, ginger, and rice to the pot. Cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth, 4 cups water, a pinch of saffron and the bay leaf. Return the chicken and juices to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to maintain a vigorous simmer.
  • Cook, partially covered, until the chicken is tender, the rice is cooked, and the arroz caldo is thickened, about 30 minutes. Discard the bay leaf, stir in the fish sauce and lime juice, and season with salt and pepper. Serve one chicken thigh per bowl and garnish with the fried garlic, scallion greens, freshly ground pepper, reserved saffron threads and lime wedges.

ARROZ CALDO



Arroz Caldo image

Despite its Spanish name, this dish is the Filipino version of the Chinese congee or porridge. It is slow cooked to perfection and it is especially good on cold winter night and gloomy days. Kasubha is the stamen of a local plant which imparts a slightly reddish or orangy tint to the arroz caldo. For convenience, it can easily be substituted with the more expensive saffron threads. The liver and the gizzard are optional.

Tips:

  • Prep the Ingredients: Before starting, measure and prep all ingredients. This will ensure a smooth and efficient cooking process.
  • Choose High-Quality Glutinous Rice: Using premium-quality glutinous rice will yield the best results, as it provides a chewy and tender texture to the porridge.
  • Use Rich Chicken Stock: Opt for homemade or high-quality store-bought chicken stock. This will enhance the flavor and depth of the porridge.
  • Season Gradually: Begin with a moderate amount of salt and pepper, then adjust to taste throughout the cooking process.
  • Don't Overcook the Rice: Cook the rice until it is tender but still holds its shape. Overcooked rice will become mushy and lose its texture.
  • Add Vegetables When Rice is Almost Cooked: Introduce the vegetables when the rice is nearly cooked to retain their texture and nutrients.
  • Use Fresh Collard Greens: Fresh collard greens provide the best flavor and texture. If unavailable, substitute with other leafy greens like kale or spinach.
  • Prepare the Soy-Cured Egg Yolks: These add a unique savory flavor to the porridge. Plan ahead, as they require time to cure. Follow the curing instructions provided in the recipe.
  • Serve with Condiments: Offer a variety of condiments like soy sauce, fish sauce, calamansi, and fried garlic to allow diners to customize their bowls.

Conclusion:

This flavorful and hearty Arroz Caldo with Collards and Soy-Cured Egg Yolks is a delightful Filipino dish that combines traditional flavors with unique ingredients.
