In my home, there is usually more than one soup at the New Year's dinner.

Lamb vermicelli, beef soup, chicken soup, sweet soup. . . Sometimes I feel that I'm full after drinking the soup. . Haha~

But no matter how it changes, chicken soup is definitely one of the standard equipment that must not be missed.

Modern people's awareness of health preservation is getting stronger and stronger, and traditional chicken soup can no longer meet our needs.

This "Maca Red Date Chicken Soup", on the basis of traditional chicken soup, not only adds red dates that nourish blood and nourishes qi, but also puts the same holy product: "Maca".

For "Maca", it is estimated that most of my classmates are relatively unfamiliar with me, so it's better to get a basic knowledge of science.

(The following information is collected and summarized on the Internet)
Maca, also called "Maca", is a semi-wild plant, belonging to the genus of Brassicaceae. Maca is precious not only because of its rich nutrients, but also because of its unique growth environment and conditions.
Let me talk about its growth environment first: First of all, the growth of maca requires a special environment and climate. It requires an altitude of more than 3,500 meters, a harsh climate and fertile land, with a temperature difference of more than 40 degrees between day and night, and does not require fertilization or fertilization. Secondly, after planting maca once, the land must be recuperated for more than seven years to restore fertility, otherwise it cannot be cultivated. (It seems to be the same for most precious medicinal materials, such as cordyceps, ginseng, etc.)

Then let's talk about its nutritional value: research has shown that maca has unique and rich phytochemical components and biologically active substances that are healthy, multiply, fight aging, and provide life power. To put it succinctly and concisely, maca is suitable for almost all kinds of people, and it has anti-aging effects, strengthens the body's immunity, and improves metabolism. In addition, it has a good auxiliary treatment effect for a variety of stubborn diseases (diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, etc.).

After reading the above introduction, it's time to invite everyone to have some soup!

The chicken soup with maca and red dates just needs a little salt to give out a sweet and delicious taste~~"

Tips:

1. After washing the chicken, it is best to remove the internal organs and excessive chicken fat, so that the soup will not be too greasy;

2. The trick to making delicious soup is the application of civil and martial fire, which is to boil over a high fire, then turn to a low heat and simmer slowly;

3. The cooking time is adjusted according to the actual situation. If it's an old hen, and it's also big, stew it for a while longer;
