"Stewed chicken breast with dried scallops" is only known as its name. Many people will mistake it for a dish similar to stewed meat slices, stewed meat segments, and stewed kidney flowers. In the practice, only the raw materials used are different. I have also eaten it in many places. The dish known as the palace's "chicken breast" was actually served on the table and found it was a plate of "fried chicken slices" with some sauce added to it. The soup inside was just a little too much. The store's publicity was under the guise of court dishes or official dishes.
In fact, this is not the case at all. According to my understanding and textual research, I have consulted experts who have studied palace cuisine and future generations of palace chefs who have cooked this dish. These people are also old masters in their twenties. They just laughed it off after listening to my narration. In order to correct my layman's ideas, the master also personally cooked the kitchen, so that I had the honor to taste this dish and witnessed the whole process of his making this dish.
In fact, this soup-like dish tastes very delicious. I drank a big bowl that time, haha! This is really different from the so-called "chicken breast" promoted and produced in some shops under the guise of palace cuisine and official cuisine. The discrepancy is too big!
It is said that in her later years, Empress Dowager Cixi liked to eat light and delicious dishes most, and "Stewed Chicken Breast" was one of her favorite soups. The reason why it is called "Flowing Chicken Breast" is entirely the name given by the master of the imperial kitchen. This dish has a wide range of soup and is also made by thickening. It's just that it uses raw materials such as chicken soup and minced chicken, which are carefully researched and carefully prepared by the masters. In fact, the method is very simple, just showing a little skill in raw material processing! Today, I tried making this soup. I used some scallops, so it was called "Steamed Chicken Dried Scallop". Regardless of whether our production is good or bad, the focus is on the display in the link. The specific practices are as follows;
