It's simple. Generally speaking, chicken leg meat is made of mushrooms and green peppers in a casserole. Then why is it called braised chicken? There is also a historical allusion. According to legend, the raw material of braised chicken is the chicken named by Zhu Yuanzhang.
This kind of chicken has the characteristics of yellow feathers, yellow mouth and yellow feet, so it is named "Sanhuang Chicken", and the yellow chicken made of Sanhuang Chicken is named "Huangqi Chicken".
In fact, there are few authentic three-yellow chickens in braised chicken, and ordinary broilers are generally used. After all, cost determines the quality of ingredients. After talking about braised chicken, everyone understood. Where did the braised pork ribs and braised beef come from? Is it also named after Sanhuang Pig and Sanhuang Cattle? Not exactly.
Nowadays, the ingredients of braised chicken have continued the practice of braised chicken, so it is also prefixed with braised chicken. No matter how it changes, dried mushrooms are indispensable ingredients in braised series, and yellow soup made of dried mushrooms has become the most classic collocation of braised series.
