Korean Ginseng Chicken Soup, also known as Sangyetang, is an\u00a0easy one-pot recipe<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>that offers the combination of nutritious soup and comfort food with tonic properties to nourish the body and promote blood circulation.\u00a0A\u00a0friend of mine bought me this fresh ginseng root when she was in Korea on\u00a0vacation. So of course the first thing I thought of was to make Sangyetang, which is also one of my youngest daughter’s favourite dishes!<\/p>\n

If you are looking to get hold of fresh korean ginseng in Singapore, it is sold in the main\u00a0supermarket chains like NTUC, Giant or Sheng Siong, usually in the refrigerated section. But do bear in mind that fresh Korean ginseng is seasonal<\/strong>, so they are not available all year round. Usually when I find it in the supermarkets,\u00a0I will buy some and store them\u00a0up in my freezer!<\/p>\n

Although at first glance it\u00a0may seem like too much hassle,\u00a0because it does take about 4 hours of slow boiling in order to get the chicken to that really tender, fall-off-the-bone state,<\/strong> it’s really not! Why do I say this? Because the preparation time is only 20 minutes, and then you put all the ingredients into 1 pot and you just leave it to simmer.<\/p>\n

Of course you will still need to check on the water level from time to time, and top up as necessary. But nothing more. And in 4 hours time, you will have a\u00a0whole pot of yummy Korean Ginseng Chicken Soup. This is one of the soup recipes on my blog<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0that is actually AN ENTIRE MEAL<\/strong> on its own, because it also contains glutinous rice as a staple.<\/p>\n

For just 20 minutes + a few\u00a0minutes here and there of work, why not? That’s why in fact it is one of the easier dishes to cook, so please\u00a0don’t be fooled by the longer cooking time<\/strong>! Take a look at the recipe and you will see what I mean.<\/p>\n
