Braised chicken with rice is a famous dish in Shandong. To make the most authentic yellow braised chicken, not only the selection of ingredients must be fine and accurate, but also the requirements for the pot body are very high. After making it, the color and fragrance are beautiful, the taste is fresh and tender, and the fragrance is strong. Regardless of the taste, vision, and color, it is top-grade, which is endlessly memorable and endless.
Although my method is not so sophisticated, after many attempts, I chose different ingredients, including broiler, native chicken, three yellow chicken, chicken wing root and drumstick. The same method has some differences in the taste, and some conclusions are also made. Own experience. The broiler chicken is bright and bright, with thick fat in the soup, the local chicken is slightly thinner and the meat is better than the firewood, and the three yellow chicken is in the middle of the two. Because I don't like some parts of the chicken, I personally like the yellow braised chicken made with drumsticks. Although it is not authentic, the taste is good, so it is named "Yellow Braised Chicken" for the time being. "

Tips:

1. The main ingredients of the yellow braised chicken can be selected according to personal preference
2. Do not blanch the chicken in advance, otherwise the fat in the chicken cannot be released, which will affect the color and taste
3. The water for soaking mushrooms should be at 60~80℃, so as to stimulate the umami taste of mushrooms
4. Add a little sugar when soaking shiitake mushrooms, which not only shortens the soaking time, but also tastes more delicious after cooking
5. Don't throw away the water for soaking mushrooms. Use it to stew chicken after boiling it. The flavor will be stronger and the loss of some water-soluble nutrients will also be reduced. Because there is less water for shiitake mushrooms, add some cold water when cooking
6. It is best to choose dried shiitake mushrooms, which can fully absorb the essence of the soup during the stewing process, so that the shiitake mushrooms are more delicious and rich.
