Fresh Ginseng Chicken Soup ?????


By Little Inbox Recipe ~Eating Pleasure~ (Visit website)




I spotted fresh ginseng in a hypermarket during my weekly shopping. It's not expensive, just cost about RM5 for 50gm. Without hesitation, I bought a packet to cook fresh ginseng chicken soup.


This is not the wild ginseng, but it is planted in the rich organic soil in the forest of Changbai Mountain. According to the packaging information, the fresh ginseng is a good natural medicine for facial treatment. It can soften and refresh skin. Besides, it is the best tonic for sexual ability. :)

The soup is simmered in a double-boiler for hours. As a result, the soup base consist of clear broth. It tastes slightly sweet and bitter. The ginseng smell is mild and not over-powering. The soup can be considered as low fat and nutritious diet.
