(Serve 2 person, preparation time 3 hours)
Ingredients
* 1 whole bird's nest
* 10 small cubes of rock sugar
* 15 slices American ginseng (pao shen/泡参)
* 500ml of drinking water
Preparation method
Soak the bird's nest in a bowl of lukewarm clean water. Wait 1 hour. It will expand and soften. Quality bird’s nest has a good ability to absorb water. Normally it will weight more than 6 times of its original weight.
Drain the water from the bowl to remove the visible dirt and the remaining tiny feathers. Do this few times until it is spotlessly clean. Regardless how clean the bird’s nest; there would still be tiny feathers.
Place all the above ingredients in a clean tureen/bowl and double-boil for 1.5 hours with medium fire. Serve it warm or cold. If you are preparing this for consumption over the week, please keep it refrigerated after it cools down.
Enjoy this recipe. Improve your health and beauty!
