HOW TO MAKE STEWED SILKIE CHICKEN SOUP

You can purchase whole Silkie Chicken at your local Asian supermarket, either fresh or previously frozen. Remember to wash and remove the inners, head and tail. If there are any leftover feathers, pluck those too! You may choose to remove the skin as well for a healthier option for less oil.

Wash and rinse the Chinese herbs. I also recommend soaking the herbs in water for at least 20 mins to remove any sulfur used during the sulfur fumigation process (replacing traditional sun-drying for its pesticidal and anti-bacterial properties.) Just in case.

In a pot of boiling water, blanch the silkie chicken and pork tenderloin to remove impurities for about 5 minutes. Then rinse under cold water.

Place all your ingredients in a 1 L stewing pot. I like to use an electric stewing pot to keep the nutrition and original taste of food without checking the stove. I can even go take a nap!

Add approximately 1L of water (or appropriate amount, so it does not overflow).

In medium heat, stew for 3.0 hours. Longer if you want a more intense flavour.

Add a dash of salt approximately 10 minutes before consuming.

Serve and enjoy!
