MOCK BIRD'S NEST SOUP
I first tried authentic Bird's Nest Soup in a little local Chinese restaurant near Honolulu. It was love at first taste, even though I was bit put off when I found out it actually was made with a real bird's nest. This is a great mock version. This is usually served as a first course to a Chinese dinner.

Steps:
- 1. Make stock with whatever you have available chicken bones, pork bones, and a ham bone. You want the bones to have some meat left for garnish later. Add lightly salted water to cover the bones, and simmer until all meat is falling off the bones, and the stock has good flavor from the bones. The object is to get 3-4 cups of nice, reduced broth.
- 2. If you don't have enough broth, add canned chicken broth to get to the 3-4 cup measure. And I recommend having 4 cups for the soup.
- 3. While stock is cooking, Soak the Chinese long rice in warm water for 1 hour.
- 4. Chop the Chinese long rice very fine and add to the stock; simmer until it thickens, about 1/2 hour.
- 5. Garnish the soup with some chicken and or ham bits with chopped Chinese parsley; Add a splash of Shoyu (Soy Sauce) to taste.

- Rather than weighing the bird’s nest, we go by pieces per person. For two persons, my mum used 2 small pieces or 1 large piece. This equates to about 5-8 grams per person.
- Although red dates are a common addition in bird’s nest soup, my family omitted them. According to my mother, the cheap red dates will act like a sponge which absorb the goodness of the bird’s nest soup (though it’s not so bad if you eat the red dates).
- My family prefer to enjoy bird’s nest in the purest way – just bird’s nest, water and rock sugar. If I cook it, I sometimes add American ginseng slices.
- Don’t fuss over prepping the bird’s nest, because the ones sold nowadays are usually very clean. We simply soak the bird’s nest pieces in cold water for about 1/2 to 1 hr until softened, but not so long that the bird’s nest disintegrates into small bits.
- Just as we do not soak bird’s nest for too long, we also avoid stewing them for too long. The older folks especially dislike it when the stewed bird’s nest soup do not have solid chunks after cooking.
- For best results, double-boil instead of using direct flame. See the previous para for the pic on using a slow cooker as the double-boiler.
- It is said that bird’s nest soup is best consumed at room temperature, or chilled, on an empty stomach (such as just before bed). For maximum absorption, do not eat “heaty” snacks or medication a few hours before and after drinking bird’s nest soup.
