Basic Chinese Congee

• 1 cup raw long-grain white rice, rinsed
• 7 cups chicken or vegetable stock
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher or sea salt, plus more for seasoning
• One-inch knob of ginger, peeled and sliced thin
• Sliced green onion, for garnish
• Sesame seed oil or soy sauce (optional)

1. In large pot add stock, rice, salt and ginger.
2. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a low simmer.
3. Stir occasionally so that the rice doesn't clump or stick at the bottom.
4. Simmer the congee for about 1 hour or until the congee is thickened and creamy.
5. Add salt to taste.
6. Serve the congee hot.
