买一些燕窝(我买的是金丝洞燕)。这次是用三片,但是等会儿介绍是以一片燕窝的量 Buy some bird nest. Suggest buying whole pieces. I have used three pieces in this but the recipe will be measured for a single piece of bird nest
一片燕窝加一小碗水,放入炖锅泡一个半小时 For one piece of bird nest, add a small bowl of water and soak in double boil pot for an hour and a half hour
泡好后的燕窝会比干的大一倍 The soaked bird nest will double in size
一片燕窝可以加入一个红枣,8片泡参和半把冰糖 For every piece of bird nest, add one red date and 8 pieces of ginseng and half a handful of rock sugar
把红枣剪成小片,加入炖锅 Cut up the red dates and add to the double boil pot
把炖锅放入热水锅内 Place the double boil pot into a large water pot
用中火炖一个半小时 Double boil the bird nest in medium heat for one and a half hour
燕窝就这样炖好了 The double boiled bird nest should look like this
燕窝建议炖完后立即享用。 Serve and consume bird nest immediately
买些好的燕窝和泡参 Buy good quality bird nest and ginseng
