All the cozy rice soups, all the time

It’s been chilly here and I’ve been making pots of comforting, rice-based soups. They’re filling, easy to make, and last for a few meals. My favorite, and easiest, is Amy + Jacky’s Instant Pot Chicken Congee.

The base recipe is rice, chicken, ginger, and water. I use boneless skinless chicken thighs and I don’t even have to shred the chicken after cooking — it just falls apart in the soup. Once it’s thickened and seasoned with salt, I ladle it out and choose my toppings. I love drizzling it with tamari and sesame oil. My other preferred toppings are green onions, vegetable dumplings, furikake, roasted vegetables, and snow peas.

The other rice-based soups that I’ve made recently that I liked were Downshiftology’s Stuffed Pepper Soup and Cabbage Roll Soup.

Made some #BakJupGai (#Cantonese for #PoachedChicken) and am making some #Jook (#Congee) with the poaching broth now.

Will add shredded dark meat for the jook & serve the chopped chicken breast pieces over steamed rice with minced ginger/green onion sauce with the rest.

The chicken cost 99 cents/# & the rice cost pennies for the amount used.

Day 3. Gums recovery & getting used to immediate dentures.

Lunch today:
Bowl of beef broth rice #congee & smooshed boiled #eggs.
Two, 100g blueberry #yogurts.
1L #StrawberryMilk.

Enjoyed my yogurts outdoors, while listening to juncos & house sparrows singing 😀

Additional antibiotics are being picked up right now. I'm using Colgate #Peroxyl #antiseptic #mouthwash to help my gums to heal & to help prevent getting too many mouth sores. I rinse with that, after gentle warm water mouth swirling rinse.

I'm supposed to take my immediates out tonight to clean them; put back in the morning. I'm going to wait til late evening to remove for the night. I want to keep them in for longer to help my gums to heal better & to not lose shape.
