Chen By NamChen's bird porridge hotpot recipe after hundreds of experiments
If you want to make bird porridge hotpot, the easy part is just having simple ingredients like rice, water, pigeon, meat, vegetables, and so on. The challenge is cooking it to be delicious, authentic, and most nutritious!
Mr. Vu Thanh Minh – Sous Chef at Chen By NamChen restaurant – shares that bird porridge hotpot is one of the restaurant's most famous dishes. To get the perfect recipe with the highest flavor and nutritional value for this hotpot, the restaurant had to experiment and learn from hundreds of trials.

Mushrooms and seaweed make bird porridge hotpot more flavorful and, at the same time, more nutritious.
Chen By NamChen's hotpot porridge must use a mix of eight-grain and sticky rice in a standardized ratio, cooked with fresh chicken fat using traditional Japanese cooking methods. The porridge has the smooth texture of eight-grain rice blending with the sticky and fragrant sticky rice.
Fresh chicken fat is cooked on the same day with onions and herbs. Cooking chicken fat is as delicate as the preparation for the emperor in ancient times, always requiring someone to watch the fire. Just a moment of neglect, and the chicken fat pot will burn, losing its flavor and nutrients immediately!

Chinese herbal eggs are an indispensable ingredient of Chen By NamChen's bird porridge hotpot.
When customers order, the porridge is brought to the stove, rice simmered to perfection, blended with rich chicken fat without being greasy, and enjoyed with nutritious Chinese herbal eggs!
During the porridge cooking process, restaurant staff must stand there constantly stirring to prevent the porridge from burning, also ensuring an even mix of various meats, vegetables, mushrooms, seafood, and seaweed immersed in the porridge pot.
Pigeon is a crucial component of this dish. Chen By NamChen's standard for selecting pigeons is that they must be 3-4 months old, healthy, agile, with tender and undamaged meat, making them the most nutritious and flavorful.

Pigeons must be chosen from the 3-4 month age range, healthy, and fresh
In many places, people may add traditional herbal remedies when simmering porridge, but Chen By NamChen doesn't endorse this approach. Chen supports utilizing the natural flavors of fruits and vegetables combined with mushrooms, seaweed, Chinese herbal eggs, chicken fat, pigeon, seafood, meat, etc., to create a delicately fragrant, refreshing, and naturally nutritious dish.
