Servings: persons

3 pieces 1/2 in.-thick fresh ginger
1/2 lb. shallots
5 qt. water
1/2 lb. carrots
1 lemongrass stalk (white part only)
3-4 lb. stew chicken
1 bunch green onion (white part for broth, green part for garnish if desired)
11/2 tbsp. salt
2 tbsp. fish sauce
4 tbsp. rock sugar

4. Fill a large stockpot with the water and bring to a boil.

5. Add the roasted shallots, ginger, carrots, lemongrass, green onion, and stew chicken; bring to a boil.

6. Lower the heat to moderate and simmer until the chicken is cooked, about 2 hours. Add salt, rock sugar, and fish sauce. Continue cooking for 30 minutes. Drain broth into a separate pot.

For extra-potent cold relief, pour a serving-size portion (about 32 oz.) of the broth into a smaller pot and add a 11/2 in.-thick slice of ginger and 1 lemongrass stalk (just the white part). Bring to a boil and drink hot.

Chef's tip: After whipping up a batch, freeze leftover broth for later use.
