I like to home to Tuen dry goods, because only dry goods put a long time not afraid of bad, and occasionally take out the bubble can be used, do not have to specifically go to the market to buy, quite convenient.

How to Stew Chicken Thighs with Shiitake Mushrooms

Wash the dried shiitake mushrooms and soak them in water for an hour until they become bigger in size.

Put the chicken thighs in a pot of cold water, add two slices of ginger and boil until the water boils.

Pour oil into the pot, add rock sugar, dried chili peppers, peppercorns and garlic slices and stir-fry.

Sauté over low heat until the rock sugar melts, add the chicken thighs and stir-fry.

Put the sauteed chicken thighs into a cast iron pot and pour in the soaked shiitake mushrooms with water.

Add the scallions with ginger and garlic cloves and simmer until half of the broth remains, then add salt.

And finally simmer until the soup thickens.
