Clam Chicken Soup Recipe

Clam Chicken Soup Recipe

(Taiwanese Recipe)

Ingredients: Serves 2

2 chicken legs

300g clams

70g salted winter melon

3 slices ginger

 

Seasonings:

1 tablespoon cooking wine

6 cups boiling water

 

Method:

Chop chicken into small pieces and blanch in boiling water rapidly.  Then remove and rinse well.  Transfer to the inner pan of a rice cooker along with diced salted winter melon, shredded ginger and seasonings added.  Place pan in rice cooker, with 3 cups of water outside the inner pan.  Steam for 30 minutes, then add clams.  Steam until the switch pops up.  Remove and transfer to a soup bowl.  Serve.  Use half free range chicken or free range chicken to stew the soup, because the texture of the meat is more elastic.  Do not use a meat chicken to make the soup.  Have the chicken vendor cut the chicken into pieces for you.  Salted winter melon is very salty already, so no salt is needed.
