Author's Notes

Using homemade chicken broth and not using fish sauce in this recipe, makes this a low sodium dish.

Despite not using the traditional fish sauce to this dish, it didn't sacrifice the flavors for this Chicken Tinola.

I store a whole bulb of fresh ginger in the freezer for up to 6 months (if they even last that long) since I use it a lot for cooking. I just cut 1-inch section at a time for my recipes.

Use the side of a teaspoon for peeling the skin-off a ginger root.
