Brief Description
\"Spanish name derived, “arroz” means rice and “caldo” means broth. Arroz Caldo is a chicken rice porridge with its roots from congee.\" WHY I LOVE THIS RECIPE Source: This is my lolo (grandfather\'s recipe) who was a chef, my mum. and my aunties This is a traditional Filipino dish, but most of all, its comfort food. Because of its aroma and simplicity, children and adults can enjoy it. I grew up loving Arroz Caldo because my mum would make it for me. It’s warm, soothing and filling. And if you’ve just come home from a long day, a hard practice, a tough game, a storm or you’re feeling ill, the citrus fragrance lifts up your spirits and the ingredients warm you - Melannie Lavarias (REWS Project Manager)
