Recipes and efficacy tips for braised chicken with fresh Gastrodia elata:

Wash the fresh Gastrodia elata and cut into thin slices. It is best to slaughter the black-bone chicken yourself, and steam the chicken blood to make soup, which is another dish. This kind of thing is best done by an old man, haha. First, boil the water, add ginger slices, chicken pieces, bring to a boil, skim off the foam and remove. Rinse the pot and replace it with water. Add the chicken pieces and cooking wine and simmer for an hour. Then add the gastrodia elata slices and simmer for an hour. Add salt before serving. Don't leave anything else. Especially delicious. Because the chicken pieces have been blanched and washed, and ginger slices are added, the gastrodia elata does not have any peculiar smell after being cooked (some people say that fresh gastrodia elata smells like chicken feces, but it is actually due to a problem with the cooking method). It tastes like potato chips, but a little crispier. .
