How to make chicken soup:

1. First, add an appropriate amount of water to the pot, put the chopped chicken in, the water should cover the chicken, bring to a boil over high heat, immediately remove the chicken and wash it (be sure to put it in cold water, so that there will be no nasty blood stains on the soup after stewing);

2. Put the cleaned chicken into the pressure cooker, add thick slices of ginger, 2 scallions, 1 tablespoon of cooking wine (preferably Shaoxing rice wine), cleaned wolfberry, codonopsis, angelica (a small amount, just a small piece), red dates (4 or 5 pieces, more will make the soup sour), 3 longan pulps. If you are afraid of getting angry, you can remove the angelica, add 5 grams of polygonatum and coix seed, a little salt (to make the chicken taste good), add water to cover the chicken by about an inch, cover the pot with a lid and valve, put it on the stove and boil over high heat;

3. After the pressure cooker blew steam, change to medium heat and press for 5 minutes, then change to low heat and press for 10 minutes (to keep the soup clear and not turbid), turn off the heat and wait for the pressure cooker to drop;

4. After releasing the steam and opening the lid, pick out the ginger and scallions, add appropriate amount of salt and chicken essence for seasoning (according to personal preference), and a pot of fragrant chicken soup is ready.
