Congee

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup of white rice (short grain works better)

• century old egg (2)

• salted duck egg (2)

• 8-10 cups chicken broth or bone broth

• 1 tsp white pepper

• salt and pepper to taste

• scallions to garnish

Directions:

1. Wash rice and rinse.

2. Combine rice and stock together, stir, and bring to a boil.

3. Keep stirring every few minutes to prevent rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Continue this for 1.5-2 hours until consistency thickens.

4. Season to taste and garnish.

   Note: Combining vegetable oil (or whatever neutral oil you prefer) with the rice and freezing it for 20-30 minutes (or longer) helps speed up the cooking process and texture of the congee.

   Enjoy!
