How to be a brine chicken at home?
Wrap the chicken in paper, lotus leaves or banana leaves, and then bury it in hot salt to roast. This is not a real roast chicken with salt (so it is ok to roast it with coarse sand).

The real brine chicken is difficult to make, expensive and difficult to control, which affects the finished product rate. Some teachers are unwilling to teach, which leads to brine chicken being sold everywhere outside, and none of them is the real brine chicken. Baked chicken with salt is one of the representative dishes of Guangdong Cantonese cuisine, which is very attractive because of its simple preparation, rich flavor, yellowish color and tender flesh and blood. And brine chicken's approach is not complicated. You can make delicious food in a few simple steps. What should you do?

The production of ancient brine chicken:

1) Salted baked chicken must first use coarse sea salt with large particles as heat transfer medium (it is in direct contact with chicken skin during roasting, so that the roasted chicken has a unique flavor of salt roasting).

2) It is best to choose a light chicken of about 2 kg, and control the baking time and maturity.

3) Soak the naked chicken in water to remove blood. Then put it into ginger slices, southern ginger powder, rice wine and light salt water 15 minutes and take it out (mainly to remove the fishy smell and make the finished chicken skin golden yellow).

4) Before roasting with salt, hang the chicken in a cool and ventilated place where the sun can't shine, so that the chicken skin is dry but not wet (when the chicken skin is wet, the salt will dissolve into the chicken, making the chicken too salty). Before baking with salt, fill the chicken belly with dried onions and ginger slices.

Making:

1) Stir-fry coarse sea salt in a large wok.

2) Put the chicken in the salt (all covered).

3) Continue to heat the pot with low heat.

4) Cover the pot cover with a wooden cover, but make sure to leave a gap of 1.5cm in the pot cover to let the steam escape. Otherwise, the steam will flow to the chicken, which will cause the chicken to be too salty and the chicken skin will not be fully yellow.

5) After roasting for half an hour, turn off the fire, keep the temperature for 10 minute, then take out the chicken and brush off the coarse salt particles on the chicken surface, and the chicken will be roasted.

6) Prepare the ginger oil dish and you can eat it.

A delicious salted chicken is finished. Is it easy to cook at home?
