8 bone-in chicken thighs, cut into cubes
1/4 cup of sesame oil
1/4 cup of avocado oil
8 cloves of garlic
2 inches of ginger root, skin removed, cut into cubes, and crushed slightly
1/2 cup of goji berries
2 cup of dry white wine
2 cups of water
Salt and pepper for taste
Use High-Quality Ingredients: The flavor profile of any dish is significantly affected by the quality of the ingredients used. Invest in good quality chicken, and high-grade sesame oil.
Freshness of Spices: The fresher the spices, the more flavor they will provide. Consider using freshly ground pepper instead of pre-ground varieties.
Control the Heat: Pay careful attention to the heat when browning the chicken. If the heat is too high, the chicken may burn, adding a bitter taste to the soup. If it's too low, the chicken might not brown properly, which won't add the desired depth of flavor.
Deglaze the Pot Well: Make sure to scrape all the brown bits stuck at the bottom of the pot when deglazing. These bits are packed with flavor and contribute to the richness of the soup.
Patience is Key: Allow the soup to simmer on low heat to let the flavors meld together. The longer you allow it to simmer (within reason), the richer the taste will be.
Taste and Adjust: Everyone's taste preference is different. Make sure to taste your soup and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or even a splash more of wine if needed.
Garnishing: Consider adding fresh herbs like cilantro or green onions for garnish just before serving. This not only enhances the presentation but also adds a refreshing taste to the soup.
Pair it Right: Pair your soup with a side of steamed rice or noodles, or even a piece of crusty bread to soak up the flavorful broth.
