Ingredients List
Important Notes
Since chicken and vegetables release a lot of moisture, reducing the amount of water during cooking ensures the rice doesn't become mushy. 🔥
Much of the umami and fragrance of burdock root is found near the skin, so avoid scrubbing it until it turns completely white. 💡
Using both Japanese dashi (hondashi) and Chinese chicken bouillon base in the soup creates a deep flavor that perfectly complements the sweet and savory chicken rice. ⚠️
