Chicken soup in earthen jar

Introduction:

"The earthen pot chicken soup of XiaoTaoYuan in Wuhan is famous for its unique flavor. The earthen pot chicken soup plays an important role in the diet of Hubei. In the customs of Hubei people, drinking chicken soup is a very important thing. After childbirth, women have to eat more than a dozen chickens. Those who are good at eating can eat dozens of chickens. The poor also have to eat three or five chickens. The chicken is mainly stewed soup, which is the traditional view of Hubei people Read inside, drinking soup is better than eating meat to support people, so when I was in confinement, I drank all the soup and my father ate all the meat. He was a carnivore. I loved soup very much. It was the best of both worlds! It's not only to do confinement, but also to show the highest courtesy to the guests. Good pot chicken soup, chicken must use native chicken, best produced in Huangpi, Xiaogan area of Feinen hen. Put the chicken into the oil pan to stir fry, and then pour it into the earthen jar with boiling water. Add a small amount of spices or nothing. Just use ginger and water, cook with high heat and simmer through with low heat. Salt must be put at the end. If salt is put early, it will cause protein to solidify, so that the flavor of chicken is not easy to dissolve in the soup. A pot of successful chicken soup must be fat, tender and crisp. The soup is golden and fragrant. If you take a sip, the taste is like opening the dust laden years of your hometown. In my memory, the red clay stove in my grandmother's backyard has a fine red fire, the fan is gently shaking, and the setting sun is warm. After several hours of simmering, the chicken soup in the earthen pot quietly boils, and the rich fragrance is secreted into my heart. Anxious to have a drink, she often burns her mouth carelessly. Grandma always says, "slow down! Slow down Then put a spoon of golden soup on it, blow it carefully and put it into my mouth. "
