Winter Solstice: Since ancient times, there has been a saying that we eat dumplings in the north and glutinous rice balls in the south! But in Nanjing, where we are located in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, where we are not in the north or south, we have not seen such a custom since we were young; instead, there is another tradition: every family will stew an old mother on the day of the winter solstice. Chicken soup and roasted a bowl of "green vegetable tofu"; the meaning: the winter tonic starts~19 a chicken and green vegetable tofu are safe; our family is no exception, every year~~~"

1320g Old Hen
Some Scallions
Some Cooking Wine

2. After washing, cut off the tips of chicken feet

3. Put in the soup pot

4. Add scallions and appropriate amount of water

5. Capped and boiled

6. Add an appropriate amount of cooking wine and turn to a low heat to stew

7. Poke it with chopsticks when simmering for about an hour, it means that the chicken is simmered

8. Add salt to melt and turn off the heat

9. Sprinkle some chopped green onion medlar when eating

Tips:
1. The stewed chicken soup does not need to be blanched, it can be directly stewed after washing, soaking and rinsing
2. The stewed chicken soup only needs to add green onion and water to ensure the original taste and no need to put ginger.
As the saying goes: "Chicken does not have ginger, and fish does not have sauce." It means: don't put ginger when stewing chicken; don't put sauce when making fish. Chicken does not have ginger: It is because the chicken itself does not have any fishy smell, and the taste of ginger is most likely to penetrate into the meat of the chicken, so that you cannot avoid the taste of ginger when eating, so keep the original flavor of the chicken without adding ginger
