Herbal Chicken Soup with Lingzhi
Serves: 3-4
Ingredients:
Step 1: Preparation
Soak the dried Lingzhi mushrooms in cold water for about 30 minutes or until softened.
Rinse the dried tangerine peel, red dates, goji berries and ginger under cold water.
Step 2: Parboil the Chicken
Fill a large pot with enough water to cover all the ingredients and bring it to a boil over high heat.
Carefully add the chicken halves to the pot and allow it to boil for 2-3 minutes to remove impurities.
Remove the chicken from the pot and rinse it under cold water. Discard the water.
Step 3: Soup Assembly
In the clean pot, add the parboiled chicken halves, soaked Lingzhi mushrooms, dried tangerine peel, red dates, and ginger slices.
Pour in enough water to cover all the ingredients. Approximately 1.5 litres should suffice.
Step 4: Simmering
Place the pot over medium heat and bring the soup to a gentle simmer.
Once simmering, partially cover the pot with a lid and let it cook for about 2 hours.
Stir occasionally and skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface.
Add a pinch of salt to taste.
Serve and enjoy!
Tips: Double the Lingzhi for more benefits, but it may taste bitter. Add more goji berries to balance it out.
