The Prelude to Magic
Digging into a bowl of Chicken Arroz Caldo feels like embracing grandma’s love – very cozy, very heartening. With chicken, rice, and a few magical ingredients, you can cook a delightful meal that warms you up, graced by a harmonious blend of flavours; it's Philippines in a bowl for you!
Sprays and Sauté
The first chapter of this culinary journey starts with our cast - 4 pieces chicken wings and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Crank the heat up and let these two dance in your hot sizzling pan. They might sizzle and pop, but don’t worry, that’s the sound of deliciousness in the making.
Garlic and Ginger Charades
Brace your senses for an aromatic assault as you toss in 4 cloves of garlic and 2 pieces of ginger into the mix. As they mingle and sauté, the spicy fragrance of ginger melds with the alluring garlicky essence. Our chicken wings are all dressed, oh-so ready for the next phase.
Unleashing the Lachrymose Onions
Next in line is our one-piece onion. Chop it up and set it loose in the pan. Watch as it sizzles and turns a beautiful shade of golden brown. Don't shed a tear. That’s our onion, shedding its layers and blending its sweetness with our searing trio.
Gleaming Glutinous Grains
Toss in 6 tablespoons of glutinous rice next. As you stir, take pleasure in the symphony of aromas and the slightly nutty whiff of rice. The glossy grains will absorb all the flavorful goodness, turning into these chubby pearls of deliciousness.
Water - The Marrow of Melting Pot
Time to pour in 6 cups of the elixir of life. Yup, plain old water. Watch it merge with the sizzling mix, sizzle and bubble, inviting all our primary actors to blend into incredible oneness. This section might take a while, so relax and soak in the simmering suspense.
Kasubha - The Golden-Orange Elf
Remember, patience rewards you generously. At the right moment, introduce 1 oz. of Kasubha and let the magic unfurl. This golden-orange elf turns the arroz caldo into a sun-kissed spectacle.
Ground Pepper - The Shadow Interplay
Sprinkle the pot with a 0.25 teaspoon measure of ground pepper, casting delicious shadowy interplay on the Arroz Caldo theatre, giving the fair Kasubha a scintillating contrast.
Is it a bird? Is it air? No, it's Chicharon!
Halfway through, we turn flight with 0.5 cups of Chicharon! Their crunchy pride is soon humbled in the steamy pot, lending the Arroz Caldo a characteristically enjoyable texture.
The Egg-xemplary Addition
Add 3 boiled eggs, and watch as they float buoyantly, looking like beckoning islands in our ocean of flavors. Their creamy interiors will give an eggstra touch to our simmering symphony.
Toasted Garlic - The Star-Spangled Diva
As the pot simmers, introduce 1 tablespoon of toasted garlic. Like a star-spangled diva, it'll add glamour and texture to our Arroz Caldo, defining the flavor profile like nothing else!
The Onion Springs - Green Tendril Waltz
Drop in 1 tablespoon of onion springs next, watch them twirl and waltz on the now richly decorated stage of our pot. Add that pop of colors, that crunch, that onion-y sparkle to your dish.
Lime/Calamansi – The Zesty Finale
For a zesty finale, squeeze in 6 pieces of lime or calamansi, injecting that tangy goodness into our Arroz Caldo. Their acidic notes will cut through the robust flavors with a refreshing charm!
