Steps:
- In stockpot or narrow 6-quart pot, combine soy sauce, rice wine, 2 cups water, star anise, sugar and ginger. Bring to rolling boil. Add 6 scallions. Lower chicken gently and slowly into liquid, breast side down.
- Bring back to boil, and cook steadily for 10 minutes. Turn off heat, and turn chicken over. Let sit in hot liquid 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, trim and mince remaining scallions and preheat oven to 500 degrees.
- Carefully remove chicken from liquid, and put in skillet or roasting pan. Roast 5 minutes, or until nicely browned; keep an eye on it -- it can burn easily. Meanwhile, reheat liquid. When chicken is ready, carve and serve with a few spoonfuls of sauce over it. Put minced scallions into a cup of sauce; pass at table to go over white rice.

SOY-POACHED CHICKEN
Traditionally this bird is taken from the liquid and served without further cooking, hot or at room temperature. But I like to finish it by placing it in a hot oven where, in just five minutes, it develops a dark brown, crispy crust; this browning can also be done a few hours later. Perhaps the best thing about this sauce is that it can be used time and again, as long as you freeze it between uses (or refrigerate it and bring it to a rolling boil every few days) and top up the liquids now and then. Mei Kuei Lu Chiew wine is available at most Chinese markets for about $2 a bottle, and yellow rock sugar can be found at Chinese markets too.

Steps:
- In a narrow pot with about a 6-quart capacity, combine the soy sauce, wine, 2 cups water, and the star anise over high heat. While the sugar is still in its box (or wrapped in a towel), smack it several times with a hammer or rolling pin to break it up; it need not be too fine. Add the sugar and ginger to the liquid and bring it to a rolling boil.
- Add 6 of the scallions, then gently and slowly lower the chicken into the liquid, breast side down. (In a narrow pot, the liquid will easily cover the chicken; if it is close, just dunk the chicken under the liquid as it cooks. If it is not close, add a mixture of soy sauce and water to raise the level.) Bring the liquid back to a boil and boil steadily for 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and turn the chicken over so the breast side is up. Let it sit in the hot liquid for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, trim and mince the remaining 4 scallions and preheat the oven to 500°F.
- Carefully remove the chicken from the liquid and serve it hot or at room temperature. Or place it in a skillet or roasting pan. Roast for 5 minutes, or until nicely browned; keep an eye on it, because it can burn easily. In either case, reheat the sauce and, when the chicken is ready, carve it. Serve the chicken with a few spoonfuls of sauce on it. Put another cup or so of the sauce in a bowl and add the remaining scallions; pass this at the table.
SOY-POACHED CHICKEN
This traditional Chinese dish is simple to make: You boil the soy and wine along with some water, ginger, and crushed sugar and add star anise and scallion for flavor. The chicken is boiled too-not simmered, really boiled-but only for ten minutes; it finishes cooking in the liquid with the heat turned off. There are unusual but inexpensive ingredients that make this dish slightly better: mushroom-flavored soy sauce, which is dark and heavy; yellow rock sugar, a not-especially-sweet, lumpy sugar that must be broken up with a hammer before use; and mei kuei lu chiew, or "rose wine," a floral wine that smells like rose water and costs two bucks a bottle. But don't knock yourself out looking for any of these-I give substitutions in the recipe. But if you can easily acquire them, do, because this sauce can be used time and again, as long as you freeze it between uses (or refrigerate it and bring it to a rolling boil every few days) and top up the liquids now and then.

Roast for 5 minutes, or until nicely browned; keep an eye on it, because it can burn easily. In either case, reheat the sauce and, when the chicken is ready, carve it. Serve the chicken with a few spoonfuls of sauce on it. Put another cup or so of the sauce in a bowl and add the remaining scallions; pass this at the table.
- Poach other vegetables in the soy sauce for added flavor and to serve along with the chicken. Root vegetables, like carrots, turnips, and parsnips, are best.
- Cook cut-up chicken or Cornish hens in the same way; the cooking time will be somewhat less.

- 1. Place the chicken into a pot that will allow it to be completely submerged in liquid – a tall, thin stockpot with a capacity of around 5 litres is best. With a measuring jug, add water to the pot and make a note of how much liquid it will take to completely cover the chicken. Use that volume to adjust the recipe for the poaching liquid. This recipe is for a 2-litre volume of poaching liquid. Place the ginger, onion, sugar, soy sauces, star anise, wine, salt and water into the pot and bring to a simmer. Simmer, covered, for 15 minutes.
- 2. While the poaching liquid is simmering, rub the chicken all over with salt, removing any papery skin as it will prevent the colour of the sauce from penetrating the skin. Gently lower the chicken into the pot (a hook or loop of string under the chicken's wing will help with this) and reduce the heat to very, very low. The liquid should just be steaming, without any bubbles rising to the surface. Poach for 45 minutes then remove from the poaching liquid to rest for 10 minutes. Slice the chicken and serve with a little of the poaching liquid and a scattering of coriander sprigs.
- Tip: Keep your poaching liquid to use again. After cooking with it, bring it to the boil, then freeze it. When you want to re-use it, just thaw it out and add a little more salt, sugar and soy sauce.
