Spare ingredients: old hen 1 piece, ginger 1 piece, 2 cloves of garlic, 4 red dates, Lycium barbarum 1 piece, scallion 1 root, 5 adenophora adenophora, Codonopsis pilosula 1 piece, 50g of oats, 50g of chickpeas and highland barley.
Production process:
Step 1: First, prepare a chicken, which weighs almost 2 kg after washing. Chop the chicken into slightly larger pieces, then put the chopped chicken pieces into a container, add water and start soaking. When you see blood, you need to change water.
Step 2: Wash the chicken pieces until there is no blood in them. 1 Pick a green onion and cut it into long sections. 1 Chop a ginger with a knife and prepare other necessary ingredients.
The third step is to prepare a proper amount of red dates, soak them in warm water for a while, and then clean them. A little lily also needs to be soaked in water for a while in advance and cleaned. Wash chickpeas, highland barley, lotus seeds, etc. together for later use. When all the ingredients are ready, they can be stewed.
Step 4, add water to the pot, add chicken nuggets soaked in water, skim the floating foam after the water boils, and then add ingredients such as onion, ginger, jujube, medlar, codonopsis pilosula, lily, chickpea, lily and lotus seeds. And stir with a spoon;
Step 5, add some salt to taste at the same time, stew on high fire for about 10 minutes, then turn to low fire and continue stewing for 30-40 minutes, then turn off the fire and serve out the prepared chicken soup.
Tip:
1, when stewing chicken, some people blanch it first, while others stew it directly. The chef said that if you make a mistake, the chicken soup will not be fresh or fishy. I'll teach you 1 the trick is to soak the chicken pieces in clear water in advance and slowly force the blood out. The stewed soup will be more delicious and will not smell fishy;
2, stewed chicken soup, cold water can be cooked, because this dish is mainly soup, so salt can be cooked early, and the boiled soup tastes stronger, and if it is mainly meat, it is necessary to postpone the time of adding salt, otherwise salt will make the meat become tight and taste bad;
3, stew chicken soup needs to be simmered, the specific time depends on the actual situation, stew until you can easily insert chicken with chopsticks.
