Turtles are difficult to make with poor taste? This time put on the cordyceps to try, the nutritional value is high, the soup is drunk
Turtle, commonly known as turtle. In some parts of the south, it is also known as pond fish and jia fish. The head resembles a turtle, the back is streaked, and the shell is slightly softer than that of the turtle. Whether it is steaming, braising, frying, stewing soup or hot pot, it has a high nutritional value and is a good ingredient. So let's talk about cordyceps stewed turtle today.
To eat turtles, we must first choose a high-quality turtle, so what kind of turtles are better to eat! First of all, you must buy live turtles, because after the turtle will secrete a large number of toxic substances to the human body; secondly, observe the appearance, the appearance is complete, the muscles are thick, and the skirt is thick and upturned; finally, you can choose to turn the turtle over and lay flat on the ground, and it is the high-quality turtle that can flexibly move. After the turtle is selected, the turtle is slaughtered.
Killing turtles is fast, accurate and fierce, and there are two methods. The first type finds a chopstick, leads the turtle out of the head, and after the turtle bites the chopsticks with its mouth, grab the turtle's neck with your hand (pay attention to the fingers not to be bitten), and cut the trachea. The second is to reverse the turtle and lay it flat, revealing its head and limbs when it wants to turn over, at this time quickly grasping the head and cutting off the neck. Both methods are to cut the turtle from the side of the turtle to take out the internal organs and wash, and then soak in boiling water at 80 to 100 ° C for about 1 minute, peel off the limbs, remove the black skin, nails, and grease and wash them (scrape the fat with a knife to remove the fishy smell), cut into small pieces and set aside. Then the cordyceps is cleaned, the dates are washed and pitted. Finally, prepare the shallots, ginger, garlic and set aside before starting to cook.

Step 1: Add the prepared turtle pieces to the pot, remove the pitted dates, and the green onion, ginger, and garlic, pour in the chicken broth, simmer over medium heat until boiling.
Step 2: After bringing to a boil, remove the blood foam from the pot and simmer on low heat for about 1 hour.
Step 3: Simmer for about 45 minutes, add Cordyceps sinensis and continue simmering for 10 minutes. (Cordyceps sinensis is not recommended to stew for a long time, long-term high temperature is easy to make the active ingredients in Cordyceps sinensis lost, losing its own nutritional value, generally 10 to 15 minutes is better)
Step 4: Finally, add an appropriate amount of salt to the pot and simmer for about 3 to 5 minutes. Serve after cooking.
