Cut off the feet and head of the chicken and discard the head. Cut off the claws of the feet and wash clean.&nbsp;

Remove the chicken skin and fats. Cut the chicken into half.&nbsp;Clean the insides and rinse well.&nbsp;

Rinse all the herbs except the wolfberries

Place the chicken and chicken feet into a stainless steel bowl / porcelain pot with cover.

Put all the herbs into the bowl / pot except the red dates and wolfberries.

Add in 2 bowls of boiling water and cover the pot. If you are using the stainless steel bowl, cover with aluminium foil or a stainless steel plate that fits.&nbsp;

PREPARATION METHOD

In a larger pot, pour in about 2-2.5 litres of water and bring it to a boil.

When it boils, put a steaming rack into the large pot, and place the stainless steel bowl / porcelain pot on top. Cover the large pot.&nbsp;

Double- boil the chicken for 3 hours over medium heat, ensuring that there's always sufficient water in the outer pot.

After 2.5 hours, add in the red dates and wolfberries and continue to double boil for 30 mins.

add salt to taste and serve.

COOKING METHOD

Ginseng and chicken are a beautiful marriage of healing benefits and flavour. Chinese ginseng chicken soup incorporates some unique ingredients, setting the soup apart from versions of other oriental culture. This Chinese ginseng chicken soup is really easy to make and deeply delicious.&nbsp;

Chinese Ginseng Chicken Soup

silkie chicken ((substitute

ginseng roots

ginger root, sliced

jujubes

tbsp goji berries

tsp sea salt

cooking rice wine

Cut the whole chicken into small pieces by separating between the bones.&nbsp;

Submerge the chicken in a pot of cold water, then bring the pot to a boil. Heating up the water and chicken together will bring out the most impurity.&nbsp;

Let the water boil for a couple minutes. There should be foam and scum floating on the surface of the water. Turn off heat. Discard this batch of water.&nbsp;

Rinse the chicken pieces to remove any scum that may be stuck on the chicken. If re-using the same pot to make soup, rinse the pot to remove any stuck-on scum as well.

Fill a clean soup pot (I use a traditional clay pot) with 10 cups of clean water. Add the clean chicken pieces, sliced ginger, and 2 medium ginseng roots. Bring the soup pot to a boil and simmer with lid on for 1 hour.

Remove the ginseng roots from the soup, they should be softened now. Cut the ginseng roots into slices, then add them back into the soup pot. Add 20 clean jujubes (red dates), then simmer for another 30 minutes.

Add 1/2 cup of rice cooking wine, 2 tbsp of goji berries into the soup pot. Season with sea salt to taste, about 1 tsp. The soup shouldn't taste salty, and it should be slightly sweet. Simmer for another 15 minutes, remove from heat.
