Pears are my absolute favorite
fruit, I always stocked them in my fridge all the time. When I ran out of red dates (hong
zhao), solomon’s seal (yu zhu), codonopsis root (dang shen) to cook this
recipe. I just used wolfberries (go ji), astragalus root (huang qi), ginger, and
pear instead.
Ingredients:
-
1 whole chicken
-
2 tablespoon wolfberries
-
4 -5 slices of astragalus root
-
1 ginger
-
1 pear, peeled and cored
-
salt to taste
How to cook:
-
Pre boil the chicken first and throw out the
initial boiling water. Put aside.
- Put all ingredients inside and bring to boil starting
with ginger, astragalus root then chicken and wolfberries.
-
Simmer on low fire for at least 1 hour. Last 15
minutes put in the pear.
-
And finally add salt to taste. Serve hot.
