First, the old fire soup
Cantonese people pay great attention to health preservation, so they especially like making soup. Old Tang Huo is one of them. Most Cantonese people still have the habit of drinking soup before meals, so they attach great importance to soup. In fact, Guangdong locals themselves don't know why they still have this habit of eating soup before meals. In terms of diet, drinking soup before meals is good for your health. Many people will order old fire soup after going to Guangdong, because old fire soup is a combination of many soups. In different seasons, eating old fire soup in restaurants in Guangdong will taste different. For example, if you drink it in summer, you can drink red bean soup stewed with winter melon and ribs to replenish fire and damp, and you can drink ginseng chicken soup to keep warm in winter.
Second, boiled chicken
Another name of boiled chicken is boiled chicken, which is a dish that many people like to eat very much in restaurants and is also a traditional famous dish in Cantonese cuisine. White-cut chicken is made without any seasoning. After the chicken bones are thrown away, the inside will be bright red, so the characteristic of this dish is that the chicken outside is cooked, but the bones are still bloody. Guangdong people use soaking method to cook white-cut chicken. Boil the water first, then turn off the fire, then soak the chicken in the water, fill its abdominal cavity with water, and then take out the water. Repeat this for two or three times, finally boil the water, then turn off the torch and put the chicken in for 30 minutes, then add some ice water, so that it tastes crisp and tender. This dish needs to be dipped in seasoning. Although chicken has no taste, it tastes different immediately after being dipped in seasoning.
