Chicken with Mushrooms and Bamboo Shoots
This chicken stew from Vietnam is remarkable for its simplicity and subtle seasoning, which consists of only three flavorings: red wine, salt, and fish sauce. Part of its appeal also lies in its varied textural elements, such as reconstituted black mushrooms and bamboo shoots. Serve with rice. Preparation hint: For a more intense flavor, substitute red wine, chicken stock, or both for the mushroom soaking liquid.
