I tried it with cooked rice and it did not turn out good either. I did not know the proportion and did not know how long I should cook it. I used your recipe today and it turned out beautiful. No burnt jook either. I added white nuts and shredded bean curd sheets. It's perfect!

We celebrate Thanksgiving "cross-culturally," which includes turkey and sticky rice! And we ALWAYS make turkey jook the next day! Ours has added flavor because my husband brines and then smokes the turkey on the Weber. Yum!

My only suggestion is to keep the heat med to med-low and stir every so often during the cook. Does anyone else have other suggestions?<br /><br />As for Korean markets in SF, I would try searching the Korean enclave around Geary Blvd between 7th and 10th. Can any of our SF readers suggest specific stores there?<br /><br />@Jenster - hee hee!
