Steamed chicken with ginkgo and bamboo fungus
In fact, my mother used to cook this dish without ginkgo, because my mother usually liked to use ginkgo to stew chicken. In my impression, my mother used to cook steamed chicken without putting any vegetables. I made a little change, and the method is basically the same as steaming pig's trotters.

    1. Mushrooms are used dry. They feel more fragrant when they are dry. You don't need to put a lot of them. Soak them one night in advance. The current method for soaking mushrooms is this: soak mushrooms in water first, and after about an hour, take them out and wash them, then replace them with clean water and continue to soak them. I usually put them in the refrigerator for one night. The water for soaking mushrooms the next day is also needed. 2. Ginkgo is slightly toxic, so you cannot eat too much at one time. 3. Let me introduce the method of removing the white peel below. Because the previous ginkgo seeds were brought by my mother. My father has already peeled the shells of the ginkgo seeds, so there is only the skin. My parents will use a preservation bag to divide them into small bags every time. The bags are frozen in the freezer. You can use a small bag at a time. It will be fine for a year. First, boil a pot of water. After the water boils, throw the ginkgo seeds directly in without defrosting and leaving the fire on, and then use the lower part of a colander to keep rolling over the ginkgo seeds. The skin of ginkgo fruit will fall off quickly. When you see that a lot of skin has fallen off, use a colander to scoop out the excess skin and throw it away, and then continue to roll the rest until it is all lost. This method is really super good. It usually takes a few minutes. In fact, during the rolling process, you can scoop out the peeled ginkgo seeds with a colander and put them in another bowl. This makes it easier to see that the peeled seeds have not yet been peeled.
