Today I made a soup with duck meat and Cordyceps flowers. It is delicious, warms the stomach and moisturizes the lungs. Cordyceps flower is not Cordyceps sinensis, but the fruiting body of Cordyceps sinensis, which belongs to fungi. Cordyceps flower contains a variety of nutrients. It enhances immunity, moistens the lungs and relieves coughs. It is very suitable for consumption in winter. It is generally sold in supermarkets, both fresh and dried. It is very good for making soup, porridge, cold salad or stir-fry.

Cordyceps Flower Old Duck Soup

Ingredients: 2 duck legs, Cordyceps flowers, 1 carrot, onion and ginger, cooking wine, salt, wolfberry

Recipe and Steps:

I use duck legs to stew the soup. You can eat the meat and drink the soup. It is very good. You can buy dried Cordyceps flowers. A large bag only costs 5 yuan. It can last for a long time.

Soak the dried Cordyceps flowers in warm water for about half an hour. After soaking, wash them twice and set aside.

Chop the duck legs into small pieces and blanch them in water. No matter what meat dishes you make, you must blanch them in advance to remove the blood foam and hidden things inside. Pour in a spoonful of cooking wine to remove. If it smells fishy, ??take it out and rinse it twice with water.

Put the blanched duck meat into the electric pressure cooker, then add a carrot and cut it into pieces. If you have yam at home, it would be best. Add a yam to make it more nutritious. It’s yam, not sweet potato yam.

Cut some green onions and ginger slices and put them in. No other seasonings are needed to avoid a strong taste.

Add soaked Cordyceps flowers and wolfberry. Wolfberry is a medicinal and food ingredient with many nutrients and functions. It is good for stewing soup or soaking in water.

Add water and mince the meat, because using a pressure cooker to stew will not consume too much water. If you use a casserole to stew, you need to add a little more water.

Select the stew program in the electric pressure cooker and it will take about 30 minutes.

When the time is up, the delicious Cordyceps Flower Old Duck Soup is ready. It is very delicious. Drink more in winter to avoid coughing. It also warms the stomach and moisturizes the lungs. It is very good!

Tips:

When stewing the soup, you don’t need to add seasonings such as star anise, anise, bay leaves, etc. Just add salt, green onions and ginger, but you must blanch them in advance. Add cooking wine to remove the fishy smell of duck meat.
