Instructions

When buying soft-shelled turtle, ask the seller to clean it for you, but do not cut off the shell; keep it intact. Take it home, wash it thoroughly, and set it aside for use.

An appropriate amount of quail eggs (you can buy them already peeled, or you can buy raw ones and boil and peel them at home), peel and wash the ginger and slice it, and rinse the angelica and goji berries.

Put half a pot of water into the pot and bring it to a boil. Add the cleaned soft-shelled turtle into the pot and blanch for 2 minutes, making sure every piece of turtle is submerged in the hot water.

Blanch the soft-shelled turtle and take it out, then peel off the outer layer of membrane. The whole turtle has a layer of membrane, including on the skin, and all of it needs to be cleaned thoroughly.
