Monday I made J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s Egg Drop Soup recipe from The Wok.
It came out exactly right, but egg drop soup does not excite in this house. 3 stars ★★★☆☆
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.
Monday I made J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s Chicken and Ginger Soup with Rice Cakes recipe from The Wok.
My parents were visiting for this one. Most at the table enjoyed it. I think Megan would have appreciated punchier flavor.
Last night I made Korean Soft Tofu and Kimchi Soup (Kimchi Soondubu Jjigae) from J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s The Wok cookbook.
We think Megan doesn’t like kimchi or gochujang, and since this was too spicy for the kids, I don’t see myself making this again. I thought it was fine enough.
