Rinse your rice until the water runs mostly clear. Your base is dashi/fish broth, but jasmine tea acts like a perfume to fill the nose. Brew the tea lightly and replace part of the broth with it for the floral undertones. Two cups of a dashi/fish broth is your anchor; add more tea until the rice is generously submerged. Bring everything to a gentle boil, then lower to a simmer. Stir occasionally. Add your meat when the rice reaches transparency. Chicken thighs: Sear in a separate pan until golden, then poach in the rice to finish. Fish: add near the end, in soft chunks. Slice bok choy and whatever other veg you desire and sear them in sesame oil and add them in the last few minutes. Finish with a thin ribbon of sesame oil at the end. Taste. Adjust with salt or soy if needed. The altar of toppings are a soft marinated egg, or a fried egg if you don’t have the time for a boiled one, halved so the yolk bleeds, furikake, fish flakes, pickled onions for acid and color, and laoganma for a kick. 1. Begin with the rice. Rinse your short-grain rice until the water runs mostly clear. This isn’t about purity so much as intention: you’re removing excess starch so the porridge becomes silk instead of glue. 2. Your base is dashi/fish broth, but jasmine tea acts like a perfume to fill the nose. Brew the tea lightly and replace part of the broth with it for the floral undertones. Two cups of a dashi/fish broth is your anchor; add more tea until the rice is generously submerged. 3. Bring everything to a gentle boil, then lower to a lazy simmer. Stir occasionally, especially at the beginning, so nothing dreams of sticking. Over 30–45 minutes the rice will surrender its shape and dissolve into something between soup and memory. 4. Add your meat when the rice has begun to break down. Chicken thighs: Sear in a separate pan until golden, then poach in the rice to finish. Fish: add near the end, in soft chunks, so it barely cooks and flakes. 5. Slice bok choy and whatever other veg you desire and sear them in sesame oil and add them in the last few minutes. 6. Finish with a thin ribbon of sesame oil at the end changes everything. Taste. Adjust with salt or soy if needed. 7. The altar of toppings are a soft marinated egg, or a fried egg if you don’t have the time for a boiled one, halved so the yolk bleeds, furikake, fish flakes, pickled onions for acid and color, and laoganma for a kick. https://lamarkitchen.com/blog/btzyqd4f9kx2reabv630h84bh3ly8t monthly 0.5 2025-07-13
