Congee Jook Asian Turkey Rice Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Put slow cooker liner into slow cooker.
• Place the rice, turkey wings, water, salt, ginger, carrots, celery, and mushrooms into the slow cooker.
• Stir well.
• Cover and cook on HIGH for 1 hour, then reduce the temperature to LOW and cook for 6 to 8 hours, until creamy, thick, and translucent white in consistency.
• Remove and discard the ginger.
• Remove the turkey wing and place on a plate to cool for 15 minutes.
• Remove and discard the skin.
• Pick the meat off the bones and discard the bones; return the meat to the soup.
• Taste test; add soy sauce and sesame oil.
• Keep WARM until ready to serve, with bowls of cilantro, green onion, and peanuts on the side for garnish choices.

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.

Steps:

• Wash rice, and put it in a stock pot with chicken stock or water. Place over high heat until stock boils, then add about 4 cups water. Bring to a boil, and turn heat to low. Partly cover pot, simmer for about 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally and adding water as necessary (probably about 2 cups more).
• Add ginger and slab bacon, and simmer for an hour more or so. Jook should have a porridgelike consistency. If it becomes very thick, add water. When done, jook will be soupy and creamy, like loose oatmeal.
• Remove slab bacon, and serve jook in individual bowls. Season with salt or soy sauce, then garnish with minced bacon, scallions and peanuts. Drizzle with sesame oil if desired.
