When was the last time you had a good bowl of Red Glutinous Rice Wine Chicken?
As part of our collaboration with Bosch Home (SG), we have recreated this popular traditional dish using homemade red glutinous rice wine – fermented using glutinous rice and red rice yeast.
Red Glutinous Rice Wine chicken is a traditional FooChow dish. Setiawan, a coastal town in Perak, Malaysia holds strong to their FooChow heritage. Mention Setiawan, a serious foodie will immediately mention ‘Ang Jiu Mee Sua’, red glutinous rice wine chicken with mee sua. They boast the best cottage industry in producing the red wine lees and silky QQ strands of mee sua. Each home will have their signature way of making the red wine lees.
The chicken meat is marinated in the red wine lees and braised in the rich sweet alcoholic red yeast wine. We added more red yeast wine before serving to give it a rich red wine lees arima and taste. You can either serve it with rice or mee sua.
