Last Sunday I made the Superior Stock from J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s The Wok cookbook.
The hardest part was acquiring and using pig’s trotters. Getting them fresh and pre-sliced at Super H Mart would have made that much easier.
Yesterday I made the Everyday Chicken and Ginger Stock recipe from J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s The Wok cookbook. This was in preparation for the Egg Drop Soup recipe.
I like his suggestion to use a whole chicken, saving the raw breast meat and the cooked dark meat for other uses.
Thoughts on making J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s Umami Oil (“XO Pepperoni Sauce”) from his The Wok cookbook.
This is a long one. The recipe is mostly for the sauce with a note for making noodles with it. 4 stars ★★★★☆ for the sauce, mixed reviews for the noodles.
