Tips:
1. If the ratio of raw materials and water is 1:1.5 when boiling the soup, the color, aroma and taste of the soup will be the best.
2. Do not add water in the middle, especially when cold water is added in the middle, it will weaken the umami taste of the soup.
3. It is not advisable to put salt in the soup first, because the water in the raw materials will be discharged when the salt is mixed, and the protein will coagulate, making the soup lack of umami.
4. When boiling the soup, the heat should also be appropriate. It should be boiled on a high fire and simmered slowly on a low fire. This will dissolve the protein extracts and other fragrant substances in the food as much as possible to make the soup pure and delicious.
