It's snowing heavily today. Although it hasn't snowed here, it's still quite cold. The north wind is relatively strong, and my skin is dry and my lips are cracked. In such dry weather, let's not stop cooking soup, and we should cook soup for our family at least once a week, especially in winter, and we should cook more nourishing soup for our family to drink.
So today, Tietou will share a delicious pot of chicken soup with you. It is nutritious and delicious, and it warms the body and stomach. It is most suitable for cooking in winter. Friends who like soup can try it. The ingredients and methods are very simple.
ingredients: 1 catty of chestnut, half a native chicken, 1 yam, ginger slices, red dates, medlar, cooking wine, salt, etc.
The specific steps are as follows:
Step 1: Prepare half a chicken with a little old water, and it is better to use an old hen. After cleaning the chicken, cut it into pieces, put it in a pot with cold water, blanch the chicken pieces with water, sprinkle some cooking wine without covering, and boil it over high fire for about two or three minutes, then take it out and clean it again.
Step 2: Prepare a casserole, put the washed chicken pieces directly into the casserole, add a few pieces of ginger, pour in a proper amount of water, cover the lid, turn the fire to boil, and then turn to low heat for half an hour.
Step 3: Prepare 1 catty of chestnuts. I bought 2 catty here and cooked some for my wife. She loves boiled chestnuts. First cut the chestnut shell, cut a crack, and then put the cut chestnut into the pot. After the water boils for about one minute, take out the chestnut to be used for soup, and peel the shell while it's hot. Be sure to do it while it's hot. It's hard to peel it when it's cold.
Step 4: Prepare a yam, peel it and wash it, then cut it into sections, and prepare some red dates and medlar for later use. The red dates should be pitted.
Step 5: Ok, the chicken soup has been boiled for half an hour. Let's put the prepared chestnuts, yam and red dates together, and then cover the pot and cook for half an hour. Don't put the wolfberry aside.
Step 6: It's almost time. Wow, the chicken soup is so thick and fragrant that I want to drink it. Now let's add Lycium barbarum, add some salt, stir it, and boil it again.
This tender chestnut and yam chicken soup is ready, and friends who like it will try it! It's cold, drink more bowls, warm your body and stomach, and it's especially nourishing. It's suitable for the whole family!
Tips
1. Make sure to add enough water at a time, and don't add water in the middle. Control the heat, and the soup will be delicious and the nutrition will not be lost.
2. Lycium barbarum can't be cooked early. If it is cooked for a long time, it will destroy the nutrients of Lycium barbarum. Finally, it can be cooked and boiled.
3. You must use a casserole to make soup. There are many very convenient electric casseroles now, but I like the soup cooked with open fire, and I prefer the soup cooked with firewood.
