Braised old hen with Hericium mushrooms

Overview

It’s been a long time since I bought Hericium erinaceus. I have never been exposed to Hericium erinaceus. I only know how to make soup after buying it, but I always forget it. This time I put the Hericium erinaceus in front of me and bought a whole chicken to roast. I brought half an old hen back to make soup. Hericium erinaceus is very good for the stomach, and yam is also a very nourishing ingredient for the stomach, so this soup is relatively nourishing and healthy

Ingredients

Steps

  1. Soak Hericium erinaceus with water after washing. The Hericium erinaceus will be very big after soaking. One or half of the Hericium erinaceus is enough, then tear it into small florets and soak it for about two to three hours
