Time 2h10m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

turkey carcass or chicken carcass (or I have used chicken pieces)
6 cups water or 6 cups chicken broth
1 -1 1/2 cup washed rice (not quick-cooking style)
salt & pepper
soy sauce

chung choi (Chinese salted preserved cabbage)

Steps:

  • Break up the carcass into a large soup pot or Dutch oven.
  • Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
  • Add the rice (it does not need to be washed first if it is American style).
  • (The more rice you use, the thicker the soup will be.) Bring it again to a boil.
  • Then turn down the heat and simmer until thickened (at least one hour).
  • Remove the bones and scrape off any meat to return it to the pot.
  • Add salt, pepper and soy sauce (sparingly) to taste.
  • To serve: placed chopped green onions, soy sauce and sesame seed oil (a few drops) into a serving bowl.

Yield Makes 6 (main course) servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup long-grain white rice, rinsed briefly
6 scallions, divided
1 turkey carcass with some meat and skin
1 (4-inch) piece peeled ginger, halved, divided
10 cups water
Accompaniments: soy sauce; Asian sesame oil

Steps:

  • Simmer rice, 3 scallions, turkey carcass (break into pieces if necessary), half of ginger, and water in a 6-to 8-quart heavy pot, covered, stirring occasionally, until soup has a creamy, porridge-like consistency, 50 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice remaining 3 scallions and julienne remaining ginger.
  • Discard turkey bones. Serve jook sprinkled with scallions and ginger.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rice: Short-grain or medium-grain rice is best for jook because it creates a smooth, creamy texture. Jasmine rice, arborio rice, or glutinous rice are all good options.
  • Use flavorful broth: The broth is the base of the jook, so make sure it's flavorful. You can use chicken broth, pork broth, or vegetable broth. If you're using water, add some salt, pepper, and garlic powder for flavor.
  • Cook the rice slowly: Jook is a slow-cooked dish, so don't rush the process. Cook the rice over low heat for at least 30 minutes, or until it's soft and creamy.
  • Add your favorite toppings: Jook is a versatile dish that can be topped with a variety of ingredients. Some popular toppings include scallions, cilantro, fried garlic, ginger, and chili oil.

Conclusion:

Turkey jook is a delicious and nutritious dish that's perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a comforting and satisfying meal, give turkey jook a try.
