The practice of cooking chicken with pork belly is very simple. What needs attention is to wash the pork belly, wash the chicken, blanch it, cook it, and it's gone. But on the one hand, there must be a lot of white pepper, on the other hand, you can add a little harmless other Chinese medicines to stew together, such as the golden three: angelica, codonopsis pilosula and red dates.
Below Taomei will talk about the practice.
Step 1: handle the ingredients. First of all, the pork belly needs a comprehensive, meticulous, patient and uncompromising cleaning, which determines whether your braised chicken has an odor. Pork belly is the soul and key of this dish. If you can't handle it, the whole dish will be finished. First, rinse the pig's belly with clear water, pick up the grease and excrements, and tear them clean. Then repeatedly scratch and wash the noodles with salt and alkali, rub them, and then rinse them clean. Put salt and alkaline noodles again, scratch and wash them repeatedly, and rinse them again. Then add raw flour, wash with white wine again, and rub and wash repeatedly to thoroughly clean the pork belly. It is also possible to choose old hen, bamboo chicken and local black chicken as chickens. If you eat it at home, I personally suggest chopping it up. There is no need to sacrifice the taste for good looks. Wash the chicken, chop it into pieces, put it in a clear water pot, add ginger slices, cook with wine and blanch it, then remove it and wash it. Heat the wok, add a handful of white pepper and stir-fry until the white pepper is fragrant and crisp, then take it out and beat it into pieces. Stir chicken nuggets, shredded ginger, a little cooking wine, and fried white pepper evenly, stuff them into the pig's belly, and then tie both ends with ropes. Don't open them. Step 2: Pot chicken with pork belly. Put water in the pot, and pay attention to the height of the water must be higher than the height of the pig's belly. Put the pork belly in the pot, add ginger slices, cooking wine (there are unexpected gains when you put the carved wine here), a handful of white pepper, angelica, codonopsis pilosula, astragalus root, Polygonatum odoratum and red dates. After the fire boils, skim off the floating foam and turn to low heat for at least 2 hours. After the time is up, take out the pork belly, take out the chicken pieces, cut the pork belly into strips, pour it into a sea bowl, add salt and chopped green onion and eat. If you want the soup to be milky white, you can take out the pig's belly and boil it for 15 minutes. But is it necessary to eat at home? Clear soup is not good?
