Chicken stewed with Chinese herbs and mugwort is a delicious, nutritious dish, so it is very good for health. During the difficult subsidy period, this dish was considered "aristocratic" and was not as popular as it is now. Usually, people only make this dish for sick people, malnourished children, the elderly and women after giving birth or heavy laborers who need to nourish their bodies... Only eat it occasionally. To make this dish, housewives will choose young chickens "ga choai choai" or also known as chicken. This is a type of chicken that is not fully grown, the meat is soft and rich in nutrients, so it is very suitable for stewing with mugwort and Chinese herbs. Besides, it can be stewed with lotus mushrooms or lotus green rice or with many other ingredients depending on the taste of each region. In addition to this type of chicken, it can be replaced with other ingredients such as black chicken, pigeon or roof bird, etc. Nowadays, when society is developed and material is abundant, the stewed chicken dish will not be a "rare commodity" like before, it has gradually become a snack, an afternoon or evening snack sold a lot on the streets of Hanoi with instant noodles, duck eggs and chicken feet. The stewed chicken dish of the shops now is different from the traditional way of making it in the past, the chicken and Chinese herbs are put in beer cans with the lids cut off, I think this is an extremely unique and very smart creation when dividing the dish into separate portions and thanks to this, when stewing chicken, a large quantity can be cooked at the same time. ►Facebook Chef Hai: / hai.nguyenphuong ►Fanpage: / cungchauvaobep ►Group: / nhachauyeubep ►Instagram: / cungchauvaobep ►Email: [email protected] ►Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@cungchauvaobep Cung Chau Vao Bep (formerly Bep Nha Chau) is a Vlog channel about traditional Vietnamese cuisine, in which I will share with you the most standard recipes and interesting stories I know about that dish.
