Tips
1. The clay pot used to make salt-baked chicken should be deeper so that it can hold the sea salt; since the clay pot is used once and discarded, it is not suitable Choose something too expensive.

4. The sea salt at the bottom of the clay pot should be higher than the two index fingers. If the sea salt is too shallow, the kitchen paper on the chicken will be burned, and the chicken will turn black and unpalatable.
5. The paper used to wrap the chicken can be straw paper, kraft paper or special salt baking paper. If you cannot buy it, you can also use kitchen paper instead.
6. Cover the pot with a wet square towel. When the towel becomes dry, it means the chicken in the pot is cooked.
