Instructions

1

Simmer the congee base

Combine frozen rice and stock. Bring to boil, then simmer 20 min, stirring occasionally, until creamy and the grains have broken down.

2

Poach the fish in the congee(8 min)

Lay thin fish slices on top of the hot congee. Cover, remove from heat, and let sit 1-2 min. The residual heat poaches the fish to opaque perfection. Finish with ginger, scallions, white pepper, and sesame oil.

Pro Tips for Western Kitchens

Freezing rice overnight breaks down the grain structure, giving you restaurant-smooth congee in 20 min instead of 60.
