Soul friend sent me some recipes for Thanksgiving leftovers. She figured that since I was hosting my parents for the holidays I would probably have some yummy leftovers and be in need of some recipes. One of the recipes on her list was this one for Turkey Jook. Jook is Chinese rice porridge and it is absolutely delicious and something I forgot that I used to make when I lived in Monterey Park, CA (the Chinese suburb of Los Angeles). I can almost guarantee you that I will be making this after Thanksgiving.
Ingredients
- 1 cup long-grain white rice
- 6 scallions
- 1 turkey carcass with meat and skin, or one chicken breast cooked and shredded
- minced ginger
- 10 cups water
Simmer rice, 3 scallions, meat, ginger and water in a heavy soup pot covered over medium heat for approximately one hour or until soup has a creamy, porridge-like consistency. Serve with remaining scallions and ginger sprinkled on top. Enjoy!
