How To make Jook, Chinese Thick Rice Soup
1/2 c Long Grain Rice
1/2 c Glutinous Rice
5 qt Chicken Broth
1 lb Ground Pork
1 tb Dark Soy Sauce
1 ts Salt
2 ea Green Onion Stalks
12 ea Water Chestnuts
Rinse rice 2 or 3 times. Soak overnight. Mince green onions and water chestnuts. Mix with ground pork, soy sauce and salt. Bring stock and rice to a boil. Turn heat down and simmer for 2-3 hours or until the rice breaks down completely and the soup becomes thick and creamy. Turn heat up and add ground pork mixture, shaping 1 tsp at a time into a small ball and dropping it into the soup. Cook for 5 minutes or until pork balls are done. Correct seasoning. Serve in individual soup bowls. Pass the condiments around for each person to choose his or her favourite toppings. I like Nam-Yuey in mine! You can make this ahead of time and reheat. You can also use chicken slices, ground beef, beef slices, fish filets or ham slices. A roast chicken or turkey carcass is excellent for making the stock. Just cook the carcass, rice and water together. Take out the carcass when the soup is done. I add Duck Liver Sausage bits! Condiments which you can use: Sesame oil, White Pepper, Green Onions, Chinese Parsley (cilantro), tea melon (sweet cucumber), Szechwan turnips, chopped peanuts, Deep Fried Devils (Yao Ja Guai, which are small fried bread sticks), NAM-YUEY!

Rice Congee - Chinese Breakfast Tutorial (米粥)
A classic Chinese breakfast dish: Rice congee (rice porridge)
Vegan Congee (Jook, Rice Porridge, 粥)
Here's a vegan version of one of my favorite comfort foods, congee (jook/rice porridge/粥). One thing I didn't mention in the video, is that I usually dig out the lemongrass and large chunks of ginger and garlic before serving.
FULL RECIPE HERE:
Instead of using chicken, pork, or dried seafood, I used shiitake mushrooms, lemongrass, ginger, garlic, and vegetable broth to flavor the jook.
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup jasmine rice
6 dried shiitake mushrooms
4 cups water, divided (use 2 cups to soak mushrooms)
5 cups vegetable broth
2 stalks lemongrass, sliced into 3 to 4-inch chunks
2-inch piece of ginger, peeled and sliced
1 teaspoon kosher salt, add more to taste
TOPPINGS:
white pepper
hot sesame oil
soy sauce
sautéed shiitake mushrooms
furikake
scallions
