Ingredients required for making chicken soup: half a three-yellow chicken, 1 piece of ginger, 8 red dates, an appropriate amount of red wolfberry, a spoonful of cooking wine, a little pepper, and an appropriate amount of salt.

Step 1: After cutting the three-yellow chicken into pieces, follow the above steps, soak it in salt water, rub it clean, and prepare to make chicken soup.

Step 2: Rinse the ginger, scrape the skin and cut into slices. Add the red dates and red wolfberries to a bowl and soak in water for 10 minutes. Set aside.

Step 3: Add an appropriate amount of water to the boiling pot, and put the chicken pieces and ginger slices into the pot under cold water. This can again reduce the fishy smell of the chicken soup and make the chicken taste more delicate.

Turn on high heat and bring to a boil. Do not cover the pot at this time. This is similar to stewing mutton. It allows the fishy smell to escape with the water vapor, making the chicken soup more fragrant and without fishy smell.

Step 4: Use a strainer to remove the scum from the pot. The scum is the blood and impurities remaining in the chicken nuggets. You can see that there is very little scum in the pot at this time.

Step 5: Add an appropriate amount of base salt to the pot, cover the pot, turn to low heat and cook for 30 minutes, add red dates and red wolfberries, continue to cook for 10 minutes, add a little pepper before serving, and season with an appropriate amount of salt.

But, a pot of delicious chicken soup is ready.

This method of making chicken soup was also learned from a master Cantonese chef. Although it is just an extra step, the chicken soup tastes better. It is these appropriate controls and skills that give the ingredients the best.

More excellent quality.

1. No matter what kind of soup you make, try to keep the original flavor. Do not add any random seasonings, such as peppercorns, cinnamon, cloves, etc., unless the ingredients are of poor quality and these seasonings are needed to suppress the taste.

2. Generally, only ginger can be used as auxiliary ingredients. Ginger is the "soul" of the soup. It removes fishy smell and has no peculiar smell. However, more is not always better. Not all soups are delicious when made into ginger soup.

3. The quality of current chicken is not very good, and the raised chicken has a strong fishy smell, so it needs to be soaked in salt water, rubbed, put in cold water, opened and boiled to remove the fishy smell, so that the chicken soup tastes better.

4. When adding wolfberry and red dates, add them last and do not cook them for more than 10 minutes to prevent them from melting.
