One black-bone chicken, one yam, five slices of ham, a handful of pearl mushrooms, a handful of medlar, eight red dates, two star anise, two slices of onion, four slices of ginger and a proper amount of salt.

method of work

1, cut off the claw tips and tail of black-bone chicken, rinse the surface and inner cavity, put it in a cold water pot and boil it over high heat, and take it out.

2. Prepare another casserole, add water to half the amount of the casserole, and cook until the water is hot. Put the blanched black-bone chicken, ham, soaked pearl mushrooms, medlar, red dates, star anise, onion and ginger together, and simmer for about one and a half hours after boiling over high fire.

3. Then cut the washed and peeled yam into large pieces, put it in the pot and stew for half an hour until it is crisp and rotten, and add some salt to taste it.

Tips

1 Boil black-bone chicken in advance to remove blood foam and make the soup clearer. If it's too troublesome, put it in a casserole and stew it directly with cold water. When it's boiled, you can skim the blood foam with a spoon, but add a little more water.

2, chicken soup must add enough water in advance, adding water in the middle will greatly reduce the taste.

3, the hand that has been treated with yam will itch, and it can be greatly solved by pouring vinegar into your hand and rubbing it for a while before washing it off.
