Zosui 雑炊 (Japanese style rice in soup)

* adopted from recipe at justonecook

Ingredients:

For Broth:
3 cups dashi 
1 cup of chicken stock (optional - I think adding some chicken stock makes this dish even more tasty!)
2 tsp light soy sauce
1/2 tsp sea salt

For Zosui:
6 pc of boneless skinless chicken thighs - clean and wipe dry and cut into squares
carrot and shitake mushrooms - cut into thin slices. Qty is up to yourself.
spring onion - minced
2-3 bowls of cooked rice - rinse a few times with filtered water
2 eggs - beat it in separate bowl
toasted white sesame seeds
white pepper

How to make:

1. Follow the dashi packet instructions and prepare your dashi stock - approximately 3 cups.

2. Once the dashi stock is boiled, add chicken pieces to the stock. Skim off the scum and foam on the surface.

3. When the stock is boiled again, add carrot and mushrooms and cook for a few minutes. Once you think they are tender enough, add the soy sauce and salt. Please check taste and adjust accordingly.

4. Add the rinsed cooked rice. Then when the stock boils again, gently add the beaten eggs all around the surface of the pot.

5. Sprinkle with white pepper, minced spring onion and toasted sesame. Cover the pot with lid and bring to serve.

Once the lid is open at dinner table, you can immediately smell the fragrance of this dish. Enjoy this healthy dish!
