Steps:
- Gather half of cilantro into a bundle and tie together with kitchen twine. Coarsely chop remaining cilantro (stems and all); set aside for serving.
- Heat sugar and 3 Tbsp. water in a large saucepan over medium. Cook, stirring often, until sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Continue to cook, swirling pan occasionally, until syrup is golden amber, 4-6 minutes.
- Add ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until ginger is softened slightly, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and pale-green and white scallion parts and cook, stirring often, until garlic is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in cilantro bundle, chicken, chile, and a big pinch of salt. Pour in 8 cups cold water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, bring to a bare simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through, 10-12 minutes. Discard chile and scallions. Keep soup warm over medium-low heat.
- Transfer chicken to a plate and let cool slightly. Shred chicken and stir back into soup. Add soy sauce and stir to combine. Remove pot from heat; taste and season with salt, if needed.
- Serve soup topped with dark-green scallion parts, reserved chopped cilantro, and a few turns of pepper.
- Do Ahead
- Soup (without scallion greens or cilantro) can be made 3 days ahead. Let cool, then cover and chill.
CARAMELIZED GINGER CHICKEN
Steps:
- Cut each chicken thigh into three equal pieces. Place in a large bowl with the ginger, two-thirds of the oil, and salt and pepper. Cover and marinate for about 6 hours in the refrigerator.
- Heat a large, heavy-based frying pan and pour in the remaining oil. Fry until the meat is colored, about 2 minutes, then drain away the excess oil.
- Add the fish sauce, cover the pan with a lid, and steam until the sauce has dissolved, about 1 minute.
- Now add the prepared caramel to the pan and cook until the caramel has thickened and coated the chicken in a rich golden color, about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- To serve, arrange the chicken pieces on a serving platter and garnish with watercress.
GINGER-LIME CHICKEN
Though this may look like regular old chicken, don't be fooled: It's buzzing with the bright flavors of ginger and lime. Mayonnaise is the secret ingredient in this recipe, which is a trick J. Kenji López-Alt has written about. When slathered on boneless chicken and cooked, the beloved condiment carries flavor, sticks to the meat well, encourages browning and prevents the pieces of lime zest and ginger - or whatever seasonings you choose - from burning. Try this technique first with ginger and lime zest, then experiment with grated garlic, jalapeño, lemon, Parmesan and whatever else you can imagine. Serve with a pile of white rice and a fresh green salad topped with thinly sliced avocado.

Steps:
- Pat the chicken dry and season all over with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, lime zest and ginger; season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the mayonnaise mixture and stir to coat. (The chicken can sit in the marinade for up to 8 hours in the fridge. Let come to room temperature before cooking.)
- To grill: Heat a grill to medium-high. Grill the chicken over direct heat until cooked through and juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side for thighs and about 4 minutes per side for breasts, turning as necessary to avoid burning.
- To cook in a skillet: Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Cook the chicken until juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side for thighs and about 4 minutes per side for breasts.
- Serve chicken with lime wedges, for squeezing on top.
CARAMELIZED GINGER AND GINGERED CARAMEL
Caramelized ginger is little pieces of ginger root that are candied and coated with crystal sugar. They are very spicy hot, almost like a pepper, except that they are sweet as well. I've heard that they are excellent for the digestion and can be taken after food. But, they are excellent as candy any time! Gingered caramel is just caramel with ginger flavoring.

Steps:
- Caramelized Ginger: Cut a ginger root to fit into a plastic bowl with a lid.
- Cover the ginger root pieces in sherry.
- Let this sit until the ginger is fully soaked through with sherry, which can take a month or more.
- The ginger will be dark tan in color and firm and somewhat stringy in texture.
- It will be almost translucent.
- Remove the ginger root from the sherry and set the sherry aside for later.
- Cut the rind off of the ginger root and cut the inner portion into pieces about the size and thickness of 1/2 a dime.
- Put the small ginger pieces into a bowl and cover completely with sugar.
- I had about 1/4 cup of ginger and I put in about 3/4 cup of fine grained white sugar.
- Add back about 2 tablespoons of the sherry.
- The resulting mixture, with the ginger pieces in it, is a thickish but runny syrup.
- Put a mound of sugar (at least a cup) on a plate or in a small bowl and set it aside where you can reach it when you are standing at the stove.
- Cook the ginger/sugar/sherry mixture on the top of the stove until it boils but not until it darkens, (i. e., remove it from the heat before the sugar starts to burn).
- Stir a couple of times while the mixture is heating.
- Use a slotted spoon and remove the ginger pieces from the boiled liquid and plop them onto the sugar mound, keeping them separate from each other as much as possible.
- Spoon more granulated sugar over the top and let this sit for about 1 minute.
- Then stir the whole thing to coat the ginger with sugar.
- Let it sit for 5 minutes, then remove the ginger pieces and set them on a piece of baking paper to air dry.
- Gingered caramel: The boiled sherry/sugar stuff that's still in the pan can be boiled up again for about 30 seconds.
- Just as it starts to brown, remove it from the heat and add two or three tablespoons of butter.
- Let it cool for a few minutes and then pour the now very thick caramel onto more baking paper.
- This is fantastic caramel!
- Notes: This recipe starts with about 2 four inch pieces of ginger root and the yield is about 1/4 cup of caramelized ginger and about 1/3 cup of gingered caramel.
- I happened to have cooking sherry on hand so that is what I used.
- I had purchased two or three small (maybe 4 inches long) pieces of ginger root and I had not used them for anything.
- I had heard that you can soak your ginger in sherry to preserve it so I had cut the roots into 2 inch pieces, give or take, and covered them in sherry in a plastic bowl with a lid.
- I forgot about the ginger and it sat on my kitchen counter for 4 or 5 months.
- Possibly it would have been ready to caramelize a lot sooner than that but it was in perfect condition for this recipe after months of sitting.
