Exclusive Cordyceps Flower Chicken Drumstick Soup

A clear, nourishing Chinese soup of blanched chicken drumsticks simmered with ginger, then finished with cordyceps flowers and salt for a subtly earthy, restorative broth.

    The soup is a tempting golden color, and even the chicken pieces have turned orange-yellow 😍

    I only added salt as seasoning; the white pepper powder is already very flavorful. (Adjust the seasoning according to your dietary habits; some people like to add cilantro, sesame oil, or aged vinegar, as you prefer)

    Sprinkle chopped green onions, drink the soup and eat the meat, it's so delicious 😍
