Today, I made a Hakka salted chicken for my family. The chicken was steamed soft and rotten. Only a simple seasoning like salt can make a delicious flavor.
Another reason for choosing this dish is because Hakka salted chicken is also called grandma chicken. It is said that a long time ago, in a place where Hakka people live, a grandma loved her grandson. She specially left chicken legs and buried them in salt during the Chinese New Year. They are kept in the pile. When the daughter takes her grandson back to her natal home after the festival, the grandmother will take out the chicken drumsticks to entertain the grandson. Unexpectedly, the salt-cured chicken legs are salty and fragrant and delicious. Everyone who has eaten them is applauded. A Hakka-style delicacy was born.
Whether the legend is true or not, the family affection contained in this dish also adds flavor to the dish. The simple way of cooking, in fact, is like the company of the family. It seems ordinary, but the most affectionate.
