SESAME-SCALLION CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Bring chicken, 3 Tbsp. kosher salt, and 5 cups water to a bare simmer in a medium pot over medium heat (chicken should be submerged). Be patient-this will take a little while. Once liquid begins to simmer, reduce heat to low and cook (water should not be simmering at all now) until juices run clear when thickest part of chicken is pierced, 8-10 minutes. Transfer chicken to a medium bowl; discard poaching liquid. Let chicken sit until cool enough to handle, then shred meat into big pieces; set aside.
• Meanwhile, place scallions in a small bowl and pour in very cold water to cover; let soak 10 minutes.
• Drain scallions in a mesh sieve or colander, then rinse under cold running water, swishing vigorously to rinse and to encourage them to curl up. Shake off as much water as possible and place in a large bowl; set aside.
• Working one at a time, slice cucumbers in half crosswise, then slice each piece in half lengthwise. Place quarters cut side down and slice in half lengthwise again to create 8 pieces total per cucumber. Add to bowl with reserved chicken.
• Set 1 Tbsp. sesame seeds aside in a small bowl for serving. Crush remaining sesame seeds in a mortar and pestle until some of the seeds have turned to powder, but with plenty of whole seeds left. (Alternatively, you can pulse seeds a few times in a food processor or spice mill, then transfer to a medium bowl before proceeding). Add lime juice, tahini, soy sauce, honey, and red pepper flakes and mash to create a paste. Add ¼ cup water and whisk to combine (if you don't have a small enough whisk, work in with the pestle). Taste and season with salt.
• Add lettuce and cilantro to bowl with reserved scallions. Pour half of dressing over and toss to coat. Arrange on a platter. Pour remaining dressing over chicken and cucumbers, toss to coat, and arrange over greens. Top salad with reserved 1 Tbsp. sesame seeds and squeeze juice from lime half over.

• Season with salt and pepper.
• Stir in the parsley and transfer to a warmed serving dish.

CHINESE STEAMED EGG WITH SOY GLAZED MUSHROOMS AND SCALLION SALAD

Steps:

• Place the scallions in a medium bowl and cover them with cold water. Use your hands to lightly massage the scallions to separate the thin strips and to remove the slimy coating scallions sometimes have. Rinse and repeat this until they no longer feel slimy. Drain well and set aside; the scallions can be refrigerated for up to 3 hours before serving.
• Whisk the gochujang, sesame oil, rice vinegar, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon sugar and 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce together in a medium bowl. Add the scallions and sesame seeds and toss until combined. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and cook without stirring until the mushrooms are deeply browned and caramelized on the bottom, about 6 minutes. Flip the mushrooms and cook until the second side is browned and the mushrooms are tender, about 4 minutes. Remove the mushrooms to a small plate.
• Lower the heat under the skillet to medium. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1/4 cup water and remaining 1 teaspoon sugar. Stir the mixture together, scraping the bottom of the pan to remove any browned bits of mushroom that stuck to the bottom. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until you have a thin glaze, about 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms back in and stir until they are fully coated in the sauce. Remove from heat, taste and add salt if needed. Keep warm until ready to serve.
• Bring a few inches of water to a boil in the bottom of a steamer set over medium heat. Whisk together the eggs, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1 1/2 cups water together in a medium bowl. Place a 9-inch pie plate in the steamer and then pour in the whisked egg mixture. Cover the steamer, reduce the heat to medium and steam the egg custard until just set and the consistency of very soft tofu, about 15 minutes.
• Carefully remove the egg custard from the steamer. Divide the rice among four bowls or plates and top with the egg custard, soy-glazed mushrooms and scallion salad.
