Chicken arroz caldo

Hi Connie … I have posted two items in my blog which contains two of your recipes … I hope you don’t mind …. Thanks very much for the inspiration.

Naya, I saw your blog entries. You didn’t post my recipes… you cooked them and posted what you cooked. Which is just great. Feels good that I can inspire.

fyi… “caldo” in spanish means soup/stock, broth, bouillon… not “hot” as it states above.

Another comforting meal for the soul! I wanted to ask… if I can’t seem to find kasubha @ my local grocery store will the arroz caldo not turn out or taste right? Also what part of or where can I find the kasubha in the store? Many thanks again!

Aloha, kasubha is only for the coloring. At least, for me, although some cooks swear that kasubha has a subtle flavor. You’ll find it among the dried herbs — same place you will normally find packets of ground pepper and laurel leaves.

hello poh:D i was just wondering if i can cook this in the crockpot? i don’t have casserolepans kase:sad:

Yes, grace, you can.

Hi! I want to make this recipe for 1 person (me)! By how much should I reduce the recipe? Moreover, I don’t have any glutinous rice, is it alright to just use purely long-grain (pandan) rice for this recipe? Thanks for your ideas.

Hi Connie, you normally answer questions very promptly but I haven’t heard from you for over 3 weeks, could you give me some feedbacks on my email dated Feb 3? Thanks!

Jean, how much a meal for one is varies from one person to another.

As to long grain rice, sure, but the texture of the cooked dish will be different.

hi ate connie!!! pahiram ng recipe mo ha? toka kong magluto ng arroz caldo at tokwa’t baboy ngayong araw na ito. my housemate and his kids love the combination and i feel like making a very good concoction. heto at naka bukas ang laptop sa kitchen table temperature today is 33 degrees outside, so this will equalize our body temp (not to mention satisfy our hunger for good pinoy food) perfectly.

by the way, i’m not really good at this, but how do you measure iodized salt? when your ingredients say 1 tsp of salt, you must be pertaining to rock salt? although ofcourse everything may just be measured according to one’s taste, i would like to be able to use exactly whatever’s in the recipe as i’m sure those have already been tried and tested to be oh sooo good thank you in advance!

hi again ate connie!!!

my arroz caldo was a hit! josko, may dumayo pa! and my boyfriend who’s an american, loved it! i paired the arroz with tokwa’t baboy…eh di siyempre, dinumog! thanks for the recipe! next time, ipagluluto ko naman sila ng dinuguan hehehe

will try this version. caldo actually means broth in spanish. arroz caldo or arroz con caldo or arroz caldoso con pollo= rice having broth cooked with chicken. my mom always cook this but now that i am living apart from my mom and dad, i want to try your version. my mom is a filipina from davao city and my father is spanish.

hi. just wondering where in the cooking process do i put/add/use the kasubha to color the arroz caldo with reddish tint? thanks!

hi moments, LOL I can’t believe I forgot that. Add the kasubha when the broth is added to the rice.

Hi Connie! Can you use Kasubha in Paella as an alternative for saffron? thanks!

Mae, actually, I just omit it altogether.

Hello Ms Connie!

Thanks for all the recipe your sharing!!! Every time I want to cook something I just open my PC and surf on your amazing blog. Anyway for this recipe can I use Jasmine rice instead of long grain rice?

Many Thanks

Instead of Arroz Caldo, sa Tagalog ba, caldong manok?

I mean Sabaw na Kanin?

pasensya ka na sa pangalwang post.

Arroz is rice, caldo is hot. Literally, it translates to hot rice. But we call it lugaw in Filipino.
