Ginseng Nourishing Chicken Soup-ready for Autumn Health
1.
Weigh the material for later use.
2.
Wash the materials.
3.
After washing, all the ingredients except ginseng are put into a soup pot or casserole.
4.
Put in 3000ML of water and bring it to a boil.
5.
While waiting for the soup to boil, soak the ginseng in the water for 10 minutes.
6.
After 10 minutes, use a clean toothbrush to gently brush the ginseng several times and then rinse it off. This step is to clean the fine sand of the ginseng whiskers and ginseng body, because the ginseng grows in the soil; although the merchant has cleaned it before selling it to the market, it is inevitable that some fine sand remains.
7.
After the ginseng is brushed and rinsed, it can be put into the soup and simmered slowly.
8.
After the soup is boiled, turn to low heat and simmer slowly. The heat should be controlled at a low heat, but also at the state of the soup [boiling].
9.
After the soup is simmered for 1 hour, you can start processing the chicken. Remove the fresh chicken head and excess fat from the tail, because the "soup" should be clear and original, and try not to have too much fat on the surface.
10.
It is recommended to put half of the chicken directly into the soup without cutting into small pieces. The cooked chicken in the soup is also tender and does not need to be cut. Put the processed chicken into the soup and continue to simmer for 1 hour.
11.
The cooked chicken soup can be seasoned with a little salt, and it is very fresh without adding other seasonings. I did not add salt because I think the taste is already very fresh.
12.
Finished product.
Tips:
[Common Sense of Soup]
1. The red dates used in the soup must have the nucleus removed, because the red dates with the nucleus are hot.
2. There is no need to add any cooking wine, ginger or green onions to the soup, which will make the taste of the soup more complicated.
3. Since the soup is mainly to drink the original soup, it is recommended not to add seasonings such as MSG, chicken powder, etc.; because these are chemicals that eat too much will only cause harm to the human body, such as premature gray hair, hair loss, Dry mouth and other states. In fact, cooking at home is mainly to keep away unnecessary chemicals, so it is not recommended to put MSG or chicken powder in cooking at home.
