Frequently Asked Questions About Sipsi stew
What is Sipsi stew?
Sipsi stew is a Circassian dish of chicken served with a thick sauce made from chicken broth and flour. The sauce is usually enriched with butter, and recipes vary in their seasoning and choice of flour.
Where does Sipsi stew come from?
Sipsi stew comes from Circassian cuisine. It is also cooked by Circassian communities in Turkey, where household versions may differ in how thick the sauce is and which seasonings are added.
What meat is used in Sipsi stew?
Chicken is the meat most commonly used in Sipsi stew. It is typically simmered first so its broth can form the base of the sauce, then served in or alongside that sauce.
How does flour thicken the sauce in Sipsi stew?
Flour thickens the chicken broth into Sipsi stew’s characteristic smooth, substantial sauce. It is commonly stirred with butter before broth is added gradually; some versions use corn flour instead of wheat flour.
What does Sipsi stew taste like?
Sipsi stew tastes savory and comforting, with chicken and its broth at the center. Its flour-thickened sauce is usually mild rather than hot, though garlic and spices can give individual recipes a stronger flavor.
What do you serve with Sipsi stew?
Sipsi stew is often served with bread, especially corn bread, to scoop up its thick sauce. A simple salad can make a fresh side, while the chicken and sauce remain the main part of the meal.
Is Sipsi stew spicy?
Sipsi stew is not usually very spicy. Its traditional flavor comes mainly from chicken broth and the thick sauce; hot pepper is an optional addition rather than an essential ingredient.
How is Sipsi stew different from Circassian chicken?
Sipsi stew is different from Circassian chicken: Sipsi centers on chicken with a thick broth-and-flour sauce, while Circassian chicken is commonly served with a walnut-based sauce. They are related to Circassian cuisine but are separate dishes.
Can you make Sipsi stew with leftover roast chicken?
Yes, leftover roast chicken can be used in Sipsi stew, though it will not provide the broth the traditional method relies on. Make a flavorful stock separately, prepare the flour-thickened sauce, and add the chicken near the end to warm through.
Can Sipsi stew be frozen?
Yes, Sipsi stew can be frozen in airtight portions. The flour-thickened sauce may change texture after thawing, so reheat it gently while stirring and add a little chicken broth if it has become too thick.
