Especially for women with blood deficiency during menstruation or postpartum, it also has the effect of enriching blood.
Compared with roosters, hens are more suitable for all ages, especially the elderly with weak constitution. However, you can't nourish yourself too much.
The way to eat
In the way of eating, hens are generally used to stew soup, and cocks are suitable for quick frying. Because hens have a lot of fat, the nutrients in meat are easily dissolved in soup, and the stewed chicken soup tastes more delicious.
On the contrary, the cock's meat is tight and it is difficult to make thick soup. People prefer the delicate "chicken" when eating roosters. At this time, it is even more necessary to stir fry quickly and keep it fresh and delicious.
