Herbal Chicken Broth


Myth: Drink this before exams and you'll have all the answers..
me: Oooo..give it to me..gulp gulp gulp

But hey, it's the tastiest thing ever =)
plus, Mommy or granny ain't always gonna be there to make it for you

so, recipe:
5 chicken drumsticks
1 handful of dried lily bulb,optional
1 handful of dried lotus seeds,optional
4 pieces campanumaea pilosula
2 large sweet dactylifera
4 sticks huai shan
5 small pieces dang gui
5 dried chinese red dates
1 handful of goji berries

Sorry for the strange names,,I dont know what it's called in chinese
Heat a pot of water. Bring water to a boil
Add all the herbs except the goji berries
Add in the chicken
Season well with salt
simmer on Low heat for about an hour or an hour and a half
Add in the goji berries at the last minute.
Boil for another 5 minutes
Have it just like that, or with rice or even noodles.
