Quail cooked in master stock

In China, they often use master stock for the preparation of certain dishes. This master stock is made from soya sauce, rice wine, treacle sugar, star anise, and ginger. The stock is used to cook meats and poultry which enhance the flavour of the stock. Bas gives it a Japanese twist in this variant.
