On my old Bellyfull blog at the Mercury News, I wrote a post earlier this year about making congee. You can find it here: http://www.mercextra.com/blogs/food/2008/01/07/confessions-of-a-jook-neophyte/ I'm thinking that if you make a plain congee, you could top it with some grilled thinly sliced Kobe beef, and have a close approximation to Morimoto's dish. Just garnish with some slivers of ginger and green onion, and you're good to go. ;) The Kobe beef congee was fabulous!

Since I'll probably never live to try Morimoto's version, do you know any recipes for reasonable approximations? Kobe beef congee sounds amazing.
