Old hen soup is my first nourishing soup. No, my aunt gave a home-fed local old hen. It is said that the chicken is more than two years old. Because it is raised in my own family, she usually eats insects, grass seeds or The food served is tempting when you think about the taste of this chicken soup. Today, I still use the usual home-cooked method to cook the chicken soup, friends who like the original flavor can try it!

Ingredients

Classic Old Hen Soup

1. First deal with the ingredients and clean the old hen. Because of the limited size of my pot, I stuff the chicken heads and feet into the belly of the chicken, just like sorting out the grilled chicken; the rest of the accessories are ready.

2. Put the whole chicken in a casserole, and at the same time put all the auxiliary materials to remove the salt. Pour in enough water, because it's an old hen raised by her own family, so she didn't even put the cooking wine.

3. Bring the fire to a boil, skim the floating powder, you can skim it several times to make the chicken soup clearer and cleaner.

5. After the old hen is allowed to cool down, tear it into pieces, which can be more convenient to eat.

6. Put the disassembled old hen into the chicken soup again, add salt to taste, and it is ready to eat. Looking at the thick layer of yellow chicken fat, is it greasy? Then you can skim off the chicken fat and drink only the clear soup. Because my chicken is so good, I don’t even want to throw away the chicken fat. I didn’t finish the meal, so I used the leftover chicken broth to cook the noodles, even saving oil.

Tips:

Minger's summary: 1 Like isinglass and Huaye tablets, if you don't have them at home, you can leave them alone, and the taste will not be bad.

2 If you want to drink the original chicken soup, just add green onion ginger and salt to taste.

3 If you look at a thick layer of yellow chicken fat and look very greasy, you can skim off the chicken fat and drink only the clear soup. Because my chicken is so good, I don’t even want to throw away the chicken fat.
